ELLINGHAM and Ringwood are languishing near the foot of London 3 South West following a sixth league defeat.

The Parsonage Barn Lane outfit received a 65-24 battering at Old Tonbridgians and are now ninth in the standings, winning just three this season, all of which have come on home turf.

The firsts have no match on Saturday and don’t return to the league until Saturday, December 6 when they are at home to Andover.

The seconds, who slumped to their third straight defeat in Dorset and Wilts 2 South on Saturday, look to make ground on others when they return to the field a week Saturday.

They are at home to Weymouth and Portland.

Members are invited to a club lunch before watching both teams. Bookings need to be made by 5pm on Monday and tickets are £12.
