Warriors set for pre-season trip to Jersey

Warriors will travel to Jersey on Saturday 20 August as Dean Ryan’s men continue their preparations for the 2016/17 Aviva Premiership campaign.

The match is Warriors’ second confirmed pre-season encounter and will take place six days before the squad face Munster in Ireland.

Warriors last faced Jersey in March 2015 during their Greene King IPA Championship promotion campaign – a game which ended with the Islanders snatching victory with a late drop-goal.

Jersey were in fact one of only two teams to defeat Warriors in the Championship and Ryan’s men will be hungry to prove how far they have come since then when the two sides meet in August.

Director of Rugby Ryan said: “Jersey is a tough place to go as we found out during the 2014/15 Championship season.

“It’ll be a challenge for us to go overseas and apply ourselves against a well-drilled side.”

The kick-off time for the match will be announced in due course.
