Phoenix and Demons in action at Castle Park this Weekend

30th August 2024

If you are looking for a fix of Doncaster Rugby this weekend, both Phoenix and the Demons will be wrapping up their pre-season preparations this weekend with home friendly matches at Castle Park.

Phoenix kick-off the weekend on Saturday 31st August when they host Tupton, and will be hoping to follow up on their recent impressive performance against Paviors.

Tupton are coached by Rob McGeechan, son of Sir Ian and to our knowledge are playing at Castle Park for the first time – we look forward to the game.

On Sunday 1st September the Demons also have a pre-season friendly against Mansfield – another side travelling to Armthorpe for the first time.

Both fixtures will give the relevant coaching staff an opportunity to give players a last run out before the new season start in earnest next weekend.

Kick-off for both games is at 2.30pm and with the weather looking decent on both days it’s the perfect excuse to get down to Castle Park to enjoy some rugby, the bar will of course be open and the BBQ will be fired up.
