Thorney RUFC

The first week back at school is over, but we bet that your little ones still have a bundle of energy they need to burn off!

So bring them down and let them give rugby a try!

There's no better way to burn some energy, get some healthy exercise and make some new friends!

Best of all the sessions are completely free! Unless you want to treat yourself to a coffee and a bacon roll whilst they run around!

Every Sunday from 10.30-11.30. We hope to see you there!

Want a quick and easy way to support your favourite rugby club?

Sign up for the club lottery today!

Every month there is the chance for you to win up to £25,000 in the main monthly draw, as well as one of the weekly prizes of up to £250!

Not only that, but buying just one ticket a month gets you a Gourmet Club membership which provides you discounts of up to 50% at locations such as Bella Italia, Papa Johns, Odeon, Legoland and many more.

Tickets are just £10 (that's less than a Dominos pizza!) and £6 comes straight back to the club as a tax free grant helping us to work towards long-term capital projects such as improved floodlights, new pitch maintenance equipment and expansion of the clubhouse.

The school holidays are nearly over (stop cheering parents!) but there's still a few days left to entertain the little ones, and we can help you out there!

Our junior rugby training is every Sunday from 10.30-11.30 and it's completely free to try!

So if you're looking for a new activity for your boys and girls as we head into the new school year then come on down and give rugby a try!

Due to the latest RFU guidance we have taken the hard decision to cancel Saturdays game and BBQ. But don’t worry it will be rearranged in due course. Thank you 💙💛

Are you a girl parent?

Looking for a new sport for your little warrior?

We've got the perfect opportunity for you!

We will be running an exclusively GIRLS ONLY rugby taster session on Sunday 13th September.

That's right, GIRLS ONLY! No smelly, obnoxious boys here!

This taster session is open to all girls from ages 4 upwards

There's been a perception for years that rugby is a "boys sport" but England's Red Roses are leading the way in changing that view. The reigning World and Six Nations champions, they're blazing a trail for the rest of the sport.

And your little one could be part of the next generation that drives the women's game to even greater heights!

The wonderful thing about rugby is that it doesn't matter if you're big or small, tall or short, there's a role for everyone in a rugby team, all you need is enthusiasm and a willingness to learn!

And the best bit of all? The session is completely free!

There's no booking process, you can just turn up on the day and get stuck in. That said, we'd love it if you dropped us an email to say you're coming so we can plan the best day possible and show you how much fun rugby can be!

We couldn't be happier to be on board with MOTiQ and we can't wait to be able to reveal the new kits they've helped us design.

If you're looking for a new kit supplier we've got no qualms about recommending them.

Football, football, football. We know. But rugby fans, we haven't forgotten about you. 🏉

Rugby season is fast approaching and if your club hasn't sorted its kit yet, now is the time to get ahead. MOTiQ does rugby too, and we're genuinely big fans.

Start designing today before the rush hits 👊

There's many ways you can support the club, from active volunteering roles to just turning up on a Saturday to support the lads and buy a pint.

There's one way though that doesn't even require you to move from your comfortable spot in front a fan on the sofa! (We know that's what you're doing in this heat, we're doing the same!) And that is buying a ticket to the club lottery.

As well as the big monthly prize draws there is a weekly draw every Friday where you could be in with the chance of winning up to £250!

Not only that, but buying just one ticket a month gets you a Gourmet Club membership which provides you discounts of up to 50% at locations such as Bella Italia, Papa Johns, Odeon, Legoland and many more.

A ticket costs just £10 a month and out of that £6 comes straight back to the club as a tax free grant helping us to work towards long-term capital projects such as improved floodlights, new pitch maintenance equipment and expansion of the clubhouse.
