Following the RFU’s announcement delaying the start of the competitive community rugby season, we’re pleased to confirm that our 2026/27 competitive season will get underway on Saturday 26th September.

And it’s going to be a busy opening weekend for Bassett’s senior sides…

 

Saturday 26th September

🟠 1st XV vs Sidmouth RFC — AWAY
⚫ 2nd XV vs Chippenham RFC — HOME
🟠 3rd XV vs Supermarine RFC — AWAY

 

Then on Sunday 27th September…

⚫ RWBRFC Women vs Yate Rugby Ladies — HOME

 

Our 1st XV will play their first HOME fixture of the season on Saturday 3rd October, when they welcome St Austell RFC to Ballards Ash.

 

📋 NEW FIXTURE CARD

Our free 2026/27 Fixture Card, sponsored by Agralan, is now available to pick up from the Clubhouse. It includes the updated fixtures for all five senior teams, along with club social events throughout the season.

The wait is nearly over. The new season is finally on the horizon. 🖤
