Vagabonds to host first games in 6 months
The first of Manx Rugby's pre-season friendlies takes place this Sunday with the Isle of Man taking on the Rest of the World at Vagabonds on Sunday afternoon kicking off at 2pm.
All the local clubs will be sending players to Ballafletcher where they'll be split by birthplace into Isle of Man and the Rest of the World in the first of series of three matches not dissimilar to the British and Irish Lions this summer.
The fixture will also see a Douglas First fifteen take the field for the final twenty minutes to complete their preparation for their first league match the following Saturday where they travel to Vale of Lune in North One West.
