OXFORD University's match at home to the RAF this evening has been cancelled due to heavy rain overnight.

In light of yesterday's rainfall, and with heavy downpours expected today, the fixture at Iffley Road has been called off after a consultaton with the grounds staff, new captain Fergus Taylor, coach James Wade and the RAF management.

Taylor was set to lead the Dark Blues for the first time after being elected captain on Monday night.

Oxford's next match is against Crawshays at Iffley Road on February 3, while they hope to rearrange the RAF fixture for February 17.
