TICKETS are now on sale as Rams welcome table-toppers Caldy to Old Bath Road for the first time on Saturday, April 16.
The league leaders have enjoyed a sensational campaign and are currently in the midst of a 14-match unbeaten streak which means they could seal the title at OBR.
There is likely to be plenty of support for the Wirral-based side as they aim to secure Championship rugby for the first time, while also looking to complete a double against Rams following their 20-3 home victory back in December.
However, Rams have a proud home record having won nine of their 12 games to date, so it should be an enthralling contest on Easter Saturday!
We are grateful to all supporters who are now pre-purchasing tickets – it makes entry to the ground much easier for everyone – and are very appreciative to all our fans who have started using the new system.
Here are all the details to allow matchday to run smoothly.

We are no longer accepting cash at the club so all payments need to be made in advance or by card at the bar and hospitality outlets . Thank you!
