Meet the trailblazers of our brand‑new Melksham Girls Academy 💙🩷
A first year needs first‑class leaders — and these two are ready to set the tone, raise the bar, and drive this squad into a future full of grit, growth, and glory.

🔥 Ava Slater — Captain Fantastic / Miss Consistent
Textbook captain material. She’s everywhere, every game, giving absolutely everything the moment she steps onto the pitch. Heart, hustle, standards: set.

⚡ Bonnie Howells — Chief Playmaker / Midfield Maestro
Our No. 9 pulls the strings like a pro — controlling the tempo, sparking attacks, and keeping Coach Chris on his toes while she’s at it. Pure class.

💫 The first ever Academy captain duo. The start of something special.
Watch them lead. Watch them inspire. Watch them fly.

Its been a crazy week since we officially shared our news of our brand new 2nd XV team- and what a week it has been!!! 🩷💙

We are loving the amount of interest it has seen, from brand new players (who have never touched a ball) 🙌🏼, to seasoned players who are looking to get back into their boots in a more social side 🎉

Now is the time to come along to training and find your perfect place among the BSMGs! 💁🏼‍♀️🍾

Our academy girls have been working hard in the gym and on the pitch this summer 💪🏉☀️ and the 26/27 season is just around the corner 😊

We are still recruiting girls aged 16-18 to join our squad. If you are still looking for a new club, thinking of getting back into rugby or want to try it for the very first time, we would absolutely love to have to come join us! 🤗

The BSMG Women’s First XV captains have entered the building 👏

A trio bringing serious experience 🧠 , sharp communication 💬, and the kind of leadership 👭👭 that turns intent into impact. ⚡️

They’ve grafted for years, they know how to lift a squad, and they’re ready to drive a season built on connection, confidence, and big‑game energy. 💪🏼

💙 Lily Selman — Chief Hype Woman
Lily had a fantastic first season with us last year, and constantly lifted the heads of the team when the going got tough! 😍

🩷 Nicole Crowley — Legendary Playmaker
The VC that got promoted 🥇. Our no. 9 who we can consistently rely on to make the decisions and get the points on the board 🏆

💙 Amy Spears — Leader of the Pack
Amy has gone from strength to strength since joining the team. She always helps others and after having scooped up a number of awards last season, captaincy just made sense 😉

This is the leadership group built for momentum, ambition, and rugby that hits different. 🏉
