Local news for Tuesday 3rd March

Petersfield Rugby Club are running out of games as they try to sneak into 5th place and earn a chance at the end of season promotion play-offs. In a game they would be expected to win, they host Reeds Weybridge but the game is a much tighter affair than they would hope for.  https://www.petersfieldrfc.club/ . Petersfield the Rams mens team have quite the busy week. Firstly on Tuesday, they have a Seniors cup tie against high-flying Locks Heath and then Saturday saw them welcome Brockenhurst. We have interviews with new coach Rich Bessey (and revelations of the worst penalty ever taken) and we hear from the directors 6 weeks on from parting with their coach and the subsequent player exodus. https://www.petersfieldtownfc.co.uk/ . The outstanding womens rams side finally resumed league football and faced a rare challenge from Cowplain. Would they respond after going into half time 2-3 down. In hockey, the women's side had itself a postponed game, but Romsey arrived at Bedales to take on our men's first side in a closely fought match. In the Haslemere table tennis league, all sides are also running out of matches as both Petersfield A and College Hill jockey for position as they come down the home straight. https://www.petersfieldttclub.org.uk/
