Blackheath 52 Cinderford 12
Seven tries for Blackheath in a contest they dominated from start to finish, to complete a fourth victory in six starts at the outset of their National League One campaign. On a dry, and unseasonably warm, autumnal afternoon, and in a game played at a high tempo throughout, only a brief interval of Cinderford pressure intervened, as the hosts took …

Sale FC 19 Blackheath 14
Disappointment and frustration for Blackheath as they suffered a second defeat in their National League One campaign, and their first away from home. Sale FC, on the other hand, were delighted as, after four straight defeats, they finally came out on the right side of a narrow scoreline, the Cheshire side, after a ragged first period, mastering the conditions better …

Blackheath 43 Darlington Mowden Park 13
With both teams entering this contest on two wins from three outings at the outset of their National League One campaigns, it was, perhaps, no surprise that the game sat on a knife-edge for an hour, with never more than five-points separating the sides. Eventually, however, Blackheath’s lineout, which had faltered early on, came together to complement a dominant scrum, …

Bournville 2nd XV 5 -78 Blackheath Club XV
Our opposition, Wimbledon, called off on Tuesday night but the Club XV were pleased to pick up an away fixture at Bournville, a model village on the southwest side of Birmingham, founded by the Quaker Cadbury family for employees at its Cadbury’s chocolate factory, and interestingly where the sale of alcohol was prohibited. With an early start travelling with the …
Leicester Lions 3 Blackheath 34
A great start, and fine end, to make it two from two, four-try bonus point away wins, for Blackheath on their return to National League One. Sandwiched in-between, however, a lot of Leicester Lions pressure, which was effectively repelled, limiting the hosts to a solitary penalty. It was Blackheath’s opening though, on the Club’s first-ever league visit to Westleigh Park, …
