Does coronavirus mean the end for rugby?

NO!

We have Locks in Lockdown. Scrum Halves who are shielding. Properly protected Props.

But we'll be back. And we're busy recruiting for the new season.

Last season was one to remember at Royal Wootton Bassett RFC:

  • Our 1st XV finished second in the league, winning promotion.
  • Our 2nd XV were the highest-placed 2nds in their league.
  • Our 3rd XV has continued to grow their player base...

So next season we will field a brand new 4th XV team.

New players are always welcome.

Email our Director of Rugby at directorofrugby@rwbrfc.club so you can join us for delayed pre-season training.

We're not sure when we'll be back.

But we will be back.

Stronger than ever.

And we can't wait to see you.
