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.
“It’s a cause that means a lot to me as I had testicular cancer three years ago.”
The calendar features Royston senior players posing in the nude with strategically placed items covering their more intimate body parts.
