Providing support to @RNRugby who are here with both the Sharks and the Stingrays.

@catgorynphoto & @scrumpix do the heavy lifting behind the 📸🏉

Of course we are also proud to be providing support to @armyrugbyunion

Great celebration of Service Sport with an extensive Community programme, Army Women and Men plus hosting both Stingrays and Sharks from @RNRugby

@catgorynphoto @scrumpix 📸

Surrounded by a pride of Lionesses.

2nd round match for @armyrugbyunion Women was a hard one against the Lionesses.

Really grateful to @psforbrands It's their technology that allows editing rugby for @armyrugbyunion and @RNRugby without being in the busy S of England at Aldershot.

Helps having great photographers in support - @scrumpix @ @catgorynphoto

@ArmySportASCB @NAVYfit

Looks like we're getting to the emotional part of the day in Rd4 of @S7SRugby

Will @RNRugby and @armyrugbyunion maintain their success in the Men's event.

@catgorynphoto @scrumpix 📸🏉

but the inspiration will need to come from the pitch not the stands.

@armyrugbyunion @RNRugby

@catgorynphoto @scrumpix 📸🏉❤️💙
