National 7s safe: latest draft of RFUW calendar
After seeing the draft of next season's calendar, unearthed by Devon, I contacted RFUW to check on the one rather glaring absence - the National 7s.
The good news is that, as suspected, the National 7s was missing from Devon draft as that version had the fixtures for May missing. The latest complete, official, draft - including May - can be found here.
The only significant change is the addition of three weeks of Junior Super League from the end of the Regional programme to the middle of May - or, in other words, a further three week extension to elite season - which means that clubs with elite players will find it close to impossible to consistently field a full strength team between Christmas and the middle of May, a fact that will make running any form of meaningful club league an interesting challenge.
