New look and newly-named divisions will greet rugby clubs after the RFU undertook the biggest change to the league structure in 30 years.

The new pyramid will see clubs in either national, regional or county leagues with the underlying plan to improve player retention, attract new players and cut down on travelling time.

A new cup competition will round-off the season.

Royston will play in Counties Two Herts Middlesex with plenty of familiar foes and some new ones as well.

They start at their Therfield Heath home on September 3 with the visit of a famous name in the shape of Wasps FC, with the return match on March 11 representing the final game of the campaign.

Their first away match of the year is at Tabard while the last game before Christmas is away to St Albans.

The first game of 2023 is at home to Ealing Trailfinders 1871.
