Selby return to Sandhill Lane this weekend for their fourth home fixture of the Regional 2 North East campaign, looking to build on recent performances and strengthen their position in the middle of the table. Currently sitting 8th, Selby have shown encouraging signs at home and will be keen to continue that momentum in front of their own supporters.

Today’s visitors, Doncaster Phoenix, arrive at Sandhill Lane rooted to the bottom of the league and coming off the back of a heavy home defeat to Pocklington. Despite their struggles, Phoenix remain a proud and resilient club, and past encounters have shown they are more than capable of producing a challenge. The sides haven’t met since the Yorkshire One season of 2014/15, but that history ensures there will be plenty of familiarity between the two teams.

Selby’s home form will be key, and with improved consistency in recent weeks, confidence is building within the squad. The coaching group will be looking for another committed, disciplined performance as the team aims to climb further up the league table.

Elsewhere in the club, the 2nd XV enjoyed an impressive 83–0 win over a struggling York side last week—maintaining a perfect record of 11 wins from 11—while the 3rd XV face Harrogate Pythons today in a merit table fixture as they look to return to winning ways after a challenging run. The Selby Women travel to Pocklington on Sunday for their next league match.

With a strong home crowd expected and a full afternoon of rugby ahead, today’s clash offers an important opportunity for Selby to push on as the season approaches its halfway point.
