Hello,
With all senior rugby over I’m hearing about some of the successes of the junior sections – always good to hear and share this news so let me know what your teams are up to.
On Sunday the boys U16 won the Sussex Trophy Final over the hill at Brighton, congratulations to them all.

Two of our Colts players Calvin Virgo and Axl Williams are in the Sussex U17s squad.
Success for some of our former youth players with Henry Kirwan being selected for the Canadian Men’s 7s team for the Singapore 7s. Tom Doughty has been signed by Bristol Bears and U18 girls Tyla Shirley came off the bench to play in the U20 England Roses against France on Saturday.

With the mini’s tour taking place over the May Bank Holiday weekend the clubs end of season do will take place this Sunday from midday, with a BBQ and a live DJ to keep you entertained. By popular demand the ice cream van will making an appearance and there will be an inflatable for the children. It would be good to see you all down to celebrate another action filled season.

With Brighton & Hove hosting games in the Women’s World Cup you can now sign up to register interest in tickets https://www.rugbyworldcup.com/2025/newsletter.
