Medicals Rugby Football Club

Some call it poaching season some call it recruiting season.

Having finished the last 3 seasons in 3rd,4th,4th we are looking for players to take Medicals to the top of the league. So if you’re looking for a new club or new challenge get in touch .

“As a club we are incredibly proud of Matthew Hayes, today wasn’t his day and we wish him well as he recovers from the knee injury he sustained at HQ. We can’t wait to see him tear up in a Medicals RFC shirt next season.”

New Leagues for 26/27

*Head Coach Announcement*

Medicals RFC are delighted to announce our new Head Coach, Ed Irons. Ed joined the coaching team for the 25/26 season and will now lead the club into an exciting new era both on and off the pitch.

Commenting on his appointment, Ed said “It’s genuinely a massive honour to become head coach of Medicals Rugby Club, a club that is very close to my heart as myself, my brother and my father are all former players. I have some big ambitions for the club including pushing for a top two finish, but most importantly playing our brand of rugby. Running, exciting rugby, the ability to score from anywhere and at any time. I can’t wait to get started with this group of players.”

Medicals Rfc would like to thank Andy Dunn who has stepped down following this season and wish him all the best in his next role.
