Durham City Dragon's - Women’s Rugby

Look what we found in the club house 👀 the original DCRFC Ladies! 🔵🟡 We’re loving the old school style, those shirts are🔥 We just wish we could have seen them in action on the pitch! 🙏🏼

LOCKED IN 🔒 We are excited to announce the Dragons’ new co-captains for 2026-27, Steph Maddison and Ellie Thirkell!

Steph and Ellie always have a huge impact on the team on and off the pitch and we are thrilled to be going into the new season under their leadership 🧨💥🔥

Special shout out to Steph who started playing rugby at City as a mini and was a part of the original Ladies team - we are chuffed that she came back as a Dragon 💙💛

After 4 seasons at the helm, Rachael has decided to step down from her role as team captain 🐲 Rachel has led us since the beginning of our contact journey with passion, grit and determination, smashing it on and off the pitch 🔥 We are so grateful for every single thing she’s done for the Dragons over the years, we wouldn’t be where we are without her! 💙💛

Preseason is flying by but what a good session to end the week 🔥

Another Wednesday, more preseason graft! 🔋 We’re back on the pitch tomorrow 6:30-8 pm, DM for more info!

Preseason is in full swing at Hollow Drift 🎯 whether you’re a new or returning player this is the best time to come down, play some rugby, meet the team and stay for a drink 🏉
