CHIPPENHAM'S National Three South West clash at Cheltenham side Old Patesians has been postponed for a second time.

The match, originally due to be played last weekend, was rescheduled for today after last week's poor weather forced a call-off.

But referee Josh Chapman inspected the Gloucestershire club's Everest Road playing surface yesterday and decided a second postponement was necessary.

Chippenham, seventh in the table, won 31-17 when the sides met at Allington Road back in early September.

The next league match for head coach Jason Forster's men will be on January 5, when they entertain Oxford Harlequins.
