The Women’s Rugby World Cup kicks off on 22nd August and 6-7 September sees the tournament come to our city and we’re already embracing the spirit
Hove Rugby Club has been flying the flag for women’s rugby for more than 35 years – this isn’t a new trend. Brighton Rugby Club is now stepping up too, getting behind the women’s game and helping it grow.
Across the county, there’s a space for everyone – from age six right up to 60-plus. Whether you’re looking to dive into full-contact rugby or just want a fun way to get active, there are loads of options.
Non-contact formats are booming, including walking rugby, which is especially popular in Hangleton. These sessions are designed to be super welcoming, with tailored options for women from minority backgrounds. It’s all about community, connection and having a laugh. With the World Cup shining a light on women’s rugby, there’s never been a better moment to jump in. Whether you want to play, coach, support or just see what it’s all about, there’s a team waiting to welcome you.
