Chard Rugby Club's new captain Mark Lees has called on his side to maintain their fine start to the Somerset Premier Division season following Saturday's opening 35pts-7 win at home to Gordano.

"It's a great start for us, but we're not getting carried away," he said.

This Saturday Chard face Avon who only narrowly avoided the drop last season.
