LEDBURY RFC and Bromyard both paid their respects to Evesham RFC's Jack Jeffery, who died earlier this month whilst playing for his club.
Up and down the country there were similar scenes before games as the nation came together for the 27-year-old winger who so tragically lost his life whilst playing the sport he loved.
Ledbury also retired their number 11 shirt for the game with Bromyard as a mark of respect.
Premiership club Worcester warriors invited Jack's family and members of Evesham first team to Sixways for their 19-14 win over Bristol on Friday night.
