BRFC




and welcome to the official website of Blandford Rugby Football Club.

The Senior Section field a 1st and 2nd XV Team. Training is held on the on the sports pitches of the Blandford School (which are accessed via the Milldown entrance) Tuesday and Thursday evenings with matches on a Saturday. Note that the Main Clubhouse is located in East Street, in the town centre.

During the summer break the Seniors field a cricket team and run a number of activities for which details can be found on the Seniors announcements page.

The club offers a range of membership types to suit everyone. If you are a student then you are entitled to a membership discount - see Mo Mitchell for details.

The Junior Section of Blandford RFC encompasses players from 6 years old upwards and is continuing to grow in strength. We believe that any child should be given the opportunity to enjoy the fun of playing rugby whilst learning other skills at the same time.

As a family focused club it is not unusual to find whole families involved in some way or other not necessarily on the pitch. If you would like to become more involved and take up coaching or just helping out then please ask. The Junior Section is run entirely by volunteers and new 'recruits' are always welcome.

Training is on Sunday mornings from 10:00 until 12:00 on the sports pitches. On most Sunday mornings the Tuck Shop is open for hot drinks. Noel is also normally busy running the shop where you can purchase items such as team shirts, socks and shorts.

If you have not played rugby before then come along and give it a go. You can try over a couple of weekends and then you must register. Registration with the RFU then entitles you to play in matches and tournaments and you are also covered by the club's insurance policy (provided by the RFU). You will also have to pay your season subscription, as a non-profit making organisation, these funds are used to provide team shirts for matches and cover any administration costs in running the club. If you have a brother or sister who is also interested there is a reduced rate for additional family members.
