It includes a front row from Welsh league side University of Wales Institute Cardiff (UWIC).

With Andy Le Chevalier, Liam Wordley and Dinos Alexipoulos leaving, Hugo Millard-Scott (loose head), Glyn Housen-Owen (tight head) and Simon Tattersall (hooker) come in.

Front-row forward Chris Rumble joins from Redingensians, while Hugo Gentilli steps up from Henley Wanderers.

In the back row, Jack Hennings signs from Old Oakmeadians and Alex Dupee is also promoted from Wanderers.

In the backs, youngster Tom Hancock completes his progress through Henley's junior ranks, while ex-Wanderer Tom Haynes will contest the full back spot.

Training is on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Pre-season games have been arranged with Newport Saracens, (home, August 16), Newbury (home, August 20) and Worcester Warriors Development XV (Sixways Stadium).
