Canterbury have enjoyed some much-improved recent form and coach Matt Corker is keen to ensure the good times keep on rolling.
The city club clung on for a hard-fought 33-30 National 2 East victory over Sevenoaks last Saturday. They were hit with two yellow cards and a sending-off, but a massive defensive effort and astute changes from the bench saw them edge over the line.
It was a fourth league success from six fixtures in 2023. But Corker says their recent 50-21 defeat at Dorking serves as a reminder of what can happen if they aren’t up for every game.
Ahead of Saturday’s trip to Rochford Hundred, he said: “The boys have every right to be confident. “We’re very fortunate to have some very able players and good lads as well. “We want to give the boys a great experience that they can look back on, once they’re hobbling around when they’re a little bit older. “But Dorking was a great lesson.
