The side sitting second from bottom of National League Two East, facing the club twelve points clear at the top, will rightly feel mighty disappointed with the end result of this contest. North Walsham fought magnificently, leading from the fifth to the 58th minute, their backs slicing through the Blackheath defences, making the visitors’ tackling look decidedly ordinary. In the …
A fine game, with Blackheath taking an early initiative, only for Henley to launch a strong fight-back, the Oxfordshire side taking lead on the hour-mark. Short-lived though as, during the final quarter, the Club showed the class that has seen them lead National League Two East for almost the entire season, scoring 24 unanswered points to ease out to victory. …
A sometimes devastating first period, followed by a largely forgettable second, but another bonus point win for Blackheath, the Club’s fifth of 2023, to extend their lead at the head of National League Two East. In the opening 40 minutes, Blackheath’s intensity was all too much for a Sevenoaks side lurking close to the other end of the table. The …

Five tries to two, and a third bonus point win on the spin following good wins against Esher and Chinnor. A brilliant first half performance from the Club XV, with four converted tries to two unconverted and great place kicking from Oli Burgess with four from five. First half opening score from Daley Aremu, finishing a good backs move built …
A ninth home win of the National League Two East campaign for Blackheath, who remain unbeaten at Well Hall, but no other side can claim to have pushed them as hard as Old Albanians. The Hertfordshire side arrived as one of only two teams to have defeated the Club this term, and with the confidence of their 24-19 victory at …
Frustration for Blackheath on Saturday, as their latest National League Two East match at Bury St Edmunds was called off just 30 minutes before its scheduled kick off time of 3 pm. With a succession of night-time temperatures below freezing, the Club had raised concerns in the days ahead of the game about the condition of the Haberden playing surface, …
The Blackheath Rugby Under 12s took on Sittingbourne Rugby Club in a hard-fought contest that ended in a 5-5 draw. Despite the long journey to Sittingbourne, the team arrived ready to play and were greeted with great hospitality from their opponents. The home team provided changing rooms and food for the Blackheath players, setting the tone for a highly competitive …
A resounding win to extend Blackheath’s winning home record to eight matches, as well as increasing their lead at the head of National League Two East to nine points. The Club were on top from the outset, as a knock-on from the kick-off gave the host side a scrum, from which Alex Brown and Jake Lloyd combined out wide on …
Photos courtesy of Deborah Lloyd A bonus point victory to take Blackheath six-points clear at the top of National League Two East and, if not a vintage performance, a fitting result to mark a 200th Club appearance for Tom Stradwick. In a messy game, befitting a damp, grey, windy afternoon, Blackheath produced enough in the opening period of their first-ever …
