We’re kick-starting the year with a bumper month of club events! With our final two 1XV home game days, Club Burns Supper, Giffnock Karaoke and Monthly Quiz all taking place, we’ve got everything you need to get rid of the January blues.
Our first game of the year on Saturday 11th January will see a potential triple-header home game with the 1XV, 2XV and Lions all scheduled to play. The 1XV will look to continue their fine form in National League 1 against Dundee Rugby, keeping their place at the top of the table as they head into the home stretch. The 2XV enter the second stage of the Inter City Reserve league, after a recent winning streak sent them up the table and will now face the top teams from the East coast league with Watsonian 2XV first on the cards. And the GHA Lions will look to remain unbeaten and start their 2025 off on a high with a game against Greenock Wanderers, after a disappointing run of cancelled and postponed fixtures leading up to the winter break. The 1XV and 2XV games will kick-off at 2pm, and further details on the GHA Lions KO will be provided in due course.
Junior Rugby will return on Sunday 12th January with the GHA Minis on the road to Marr, GHA U15s away to Ayr and the GHA U13s and U14s at home against GHK and Marr College. January 2025 marks the extension of the GHA U13s squad into the U13s Warriors and U13s Reivers, with the squads competing in West A and West B, highlighting the strength and depths of the incoming junior teams.
