Ten Fixtures, One Saturday: West Kent's Full Football and Rugby Card for 7 November

Headlining the card: Tonbridge Juddians, second in National League 1, host mid-table Bury St Edmunds at home; five of West Kent's six SCEFL clubs are in Premier Division derbies; and both National League South sides, Tonbridge Angels and Maidstone United, are away from home. Below, sport by sport: the fixtures, where and when they kick off, and each team's current form.

Who's not playing: five rugby clubs have a blank weekend
Sevenoaks RFC, Tunbridge Wells RFC, Maidstone RFC, Weavering Warriors and East Peckham & Paddock Wood all have a blank weekend - Regional 1 South Central, Counties 2 Kent and Counties 5 Kent are all showing no fixtures anywhere in their divisions this Saturday. A full round of three separate divisions falling blank at once is unusual, and worth a recheck nearer the time in case it's a late postponement rather than how the calendar was always written. All five are next in action on Saturday 14 November.
Results to follow
We'll report on how each of the fixtures above goes as results come in over the weekend.
