Elizabethan Lodge Kicks Off New Season Backing Avon RFC
As they prepare to enter a new Masonic season next month, Elizabethan Lodge is proud to announce their continued support for the local community – this time by sponsoring the centenary season shirts of Avon Rugby Football Club.
The sponsorship celebrates a strong and long-standing bond between their Lodge and the club, with several Elizabethan members being former Avon RFC players.
The shared values of teamwork, commitment, and community – central to both Freemasonry and rugby – made this partnership a natural fit.
Before kick-off at their first league fixture of the season on the 6th September, Paul Mallon (pictured left-centre) and Malcolm Toogood, currently Worshipful Master (pictured centre-right), were honoured to present the newly sponsored shirts to the team.
Ethan Price, reporting on the event, was delighted to say that Avon RFC made a winning start to their centenary campaign, securing a thrilling 44–33 victory over Chew Valley 2nd in front of a home crowd – the perfect way to launch the season.
They wish the club every continued success in this milestone year, and look forward to another year of fellowship and service in the Elizabethan Lodge.
