Our goals

A successful season is not about winning, it is about ensuring our players have improved their rugby ability and they have attained their personal goal of being a better player.

Our home ground is Chapel Gate, Bournemouth (near Bournemouth Airport). The club has extensive training facilities, a club house and ample parking. All new players are welcome, contact a member of the Coaching Team below or feel free to turn up at a training session on a Sunday at 10:00am.

Occasionally during the season we have home and away joint training with teams from across the region which gives the players excellent experience and also a number of away tournaments culminating in a fantastic home annual tournament whereby the club plays host to over 100 clubs over one weekend.Attitudes – maintain the enjoyment of the game and the rugby values (Teamwork, Respect, Enjoyment, Discipline and Sportsmanship). Our players need to arrive at every session ready to train, wanting to give their best effort and aspiring to learn and improve.

  • Develop individual and team knowledge, skills and rugby experience.
  • Develop the physical condition of each player with sports specific training (aerobic fitness, strength and speed); to ensure they are prepared for the physical demands of the game.
