It is with sadness that en-route to Barking's u17s game with Thurrock today that some of our members and players have been involved in a serious car crash. Cain Blade, Kristi Bojaj, Geraldas Simkus (all u17s players) along with Cains Father Pete, and younger brother Bobby have all suffered injuries.

We will update you all in due course when we have further information to share. The club would like to thank the emergency services and hospitals that helped everyone involved today as well as Thurrock RFC, who were fantastic with our u17s and families at the club when the news came through.

Thoughts are with all involved and their families.

Message from Thurrock RFC
