Following their fantastic victory over the Penguins as part of the club’s 50th anniversary celebrations last week, tomorrow Orkney RFC get down to serious business as they take on GHA in round one of the BT Cup.

The Glasgow-based opposition should prove a stern test for the Orkney boys as they play two divisions higher in BT National League Division 1.

However, Orkney, playing at home, will be optimistic after their recent week’s success.

Kick-off is at 2pm on the Pickaquoy main pitch.

Next week Orkney will start their BT National League Division 3 campaign with an away match against old rivals Highland RFC.
