Clifton 17 Blackheath 34

Photos courtesy of Ian Clark. A decent margin of victory in their first match of the 2025-26 National League One season, and Blackheath dominant for the most part, but the Club had to work hard at times, especially midway through the second period when the newly-promoted Gloucestershire side had the visitors under the cosh. Eventually, Clifton number eight Harry Hone …

Bedford Blues 54 Blackheath 35

A highly competitive contest in front of a sizeable crowd at Goldington Road, played at a fast pace and featuring no less than thirteen tries. It remained in the balance, with only a converted score separating the sides on 70 minutes, but two late tries stamped the Championship side’s authority on the game in the closing stages.
