St Maixent is Horsham's French twin town: and for the first time in a generation, they're coming here on tour.

The big day is SATURDAY 2 MAY. Their match vs Horsham Colts will kick off at 1.30pm - and as part of a day long celebration, the club will be open from 11am offering traditional English fayre and fun.

We're especially keen to make a fuss of anyone who has either toured or played against St Maixent in the past. Please come, bring your photos, memoribilia and your memories.

ALL VETERANS WHO PLAYED VS ST MAIXENT WILL BE INVITED TO JOIN THE TEAMS FOR THE AFTER MATCH MEAL .

At 12.30pm St Maixent will be welcomed by the Chairman of Horsham District Council, the head of the Twinning Assocation and our own club officials.
Some of the veterans of former tours dating back to the 1970s and 80s will be there - from both clubs.

The match, at 1.30pm will be a hard fought affair - after which we'll enjoy some traditional English hospitality.

And there's lots going on besides with music, games, a BBQ and a varied Hepworth's beer selection: including specially bottled Horsham/St Maixent Beer - a collectors item but also good to drink.

VPs: Please come along to support both teams: you'll be assured of a very warm welcome.
If you have any memoribilia, please let me know: we'd love to make an exhibition
