Women

Welcome to women's rugby at Lewes RFCLewes women's rugby

Ladies, women, birds, or the multitude of animal names frequently used: whatever you want to call us, (…we heard that!) there is one thing that we all have in common… we love rugby!

Join us

Some of us love it for the fitness and the adrenaline of the sport, some for the post-match pint and lasting friendships it creates! Some of us have been playing for ten years and still don’t know the rules, some started last month and are already top try-scorers. The beauty of women’s rugby is that regardless of your sporting background, level of talent, experience, age or size, there is a place for you in the team. All we ask is that you enjoy yourself!

Lewes RFC

Lewes has had an established and successful women’s rugby team for over ten years and prides itself on being an enjoyable and friendly place to play rugby.

What, when, where?

We are currently playing in the RFUW National Challenge South East South Division 2 which allows us to play both, challenging and exciting rugby but at a level that does not prevent the team from having a good social scene. Our weekly Thursday evening training sessions finish with a few pints in the club house, and we have also been known to venture into town for a more serious drink on the odd occasion.  Games take place most Sundays, at home in Lewes or an hour or so away at our oppositions' grounds.

Training takes place on Thursday evenings from 19.30 to 21.00 at Lewes RFC.
We run additonal fitness fun and frolicks sessions (usually followed by chips and beer) on Tuesdays 19.00 to 20.00 for those who can make it!
