As mentioned before the RFU have changed the way they distribute England tickets. As a result the club have only been able to obtain their maximum allocation for the two home six nations games in 2018 which has now been confirmed as 11 for the Wales game (£101 each) and 13 for the Ireland match, (11 @ £101 & 2 @ £113). The committee decided the fairest way was to hold a draw to allocate the clubs tickets before Christmas. So if you are interested in any of these six nations tickets please let me know which games and how many by emailing here or texting me on 07818450697. Any IRFC member can request up to a maximum of 4 tickets for each game and we will make the draw on midday this Thursday 21st Dec. If you are lucky enough to be allocated any tickets I will contact you to let you know. If you do not get allocated any of our tickets you can try http://www.englandrugby.com/tickets/buy-tickets-online/ Where the RFU are selling the excess tickets to the general public (These used to go through clubs). Good Luck Dan 07818450697

Hi all The club has been donated two tickets, by one of our players, to Exeter Chiefs on New Years Eve. They are for full hospitality with food and drink included! In one of the corporate suits with the best view of the match. It's a Premiership game against Leicester so should be an awesome game 3pm kick off. They would like to auction this superb hospitality package to raise funds for our club. Maybe make an awesome Christmas present for any rugby fan. If anybody would like to make a bid please either email your bid or look out for the Facebook post on our page https://www.facebook.com/ilfracomberugbyclub/ Bidding will close at midday on Thursday 21st Dec when the highest bidder will be contacted and we will explain how to get the tickets. Good luck Merry Christmas Dan 07818450697

Looking forward to our 140th anniversary celebration on Saturday. All are welcome to come and raise a glass and enjoy some food from 12.30pm onwards. We'll be running out in our new kit (kick off 2.30pm), thanks to long-term supporters Abercorn Surveyors. Thanks also to Devon Live for the story.

Thanks to everyone who has messaged us with kind comments and good wishes. As some have asked if they could donate some money to us we have set up a fundraising page to help get repair and replace what was lost after the burglary. Thank you for your kind donations Claire Challacombe
