Famed for their tackle on the pitch, Royston Rugby Club have stripped off for a naked calendar.
The money raised will be split between Balls to Cancer - a male cancer awareness charity - and the rugby club to improve facilities for the 280 children that practice there.
Robert Turner, first team coach and social secretary said: “We did a calendar last year that was really successful within the club.
“This year we have gone bigger and are selling the calendars to members of the public.

The calendar features Royston senior players posing in the nude with strategically placed items covering their more intimate body parts.
