About Us

Wallingford Rugby Club

The club’s recent record on the field is outstanding. The 1st XV, having achieved promotion twice in successive seasons in 2006-07 and 2007-08,  and competes in  Southern Counties North League  (Level 7) . Our 2nd XV has been equally successful, now playing in the Berks Bucks and Oxon Premier A League, also after 2 consecutive years of promotion. The well established  3rd XV participates in Berks Bucks and Oxon 4 .
 
We also boast a thriving Mini/Junior and Junior Girls(Maidens) section that together have over 400 members.  Here too we punch above our weight for a small town club.  In 2010/11 our juniors were runners up in 3 of the 4 age groups.  We have 15 junior players in the county Elite squads and a further 10 in the county development tier.  Also 3 of our current U16s have made the Wasps development squad at Henley College for next year.

Our Maidens section has over 30 players and were unstoppable last season with  5 girls being called in the regional squad, 4 of whom have gone on to represent the South West.  Our minis also have had a stunning season last year where we were represented in 3 of the 6 A finals and 4 of the 6 B finals at the Oxfordshire.  These results show our inclusive approach to coaching mini rugby is yielding great results whilst encouraging all children to enjoy their rugby.

Off the field Wallingford RFC is also flourishing. The club’s annual beer and music festival, Rugfest, brings hundreds of new faces to the Club. Our Sportsman’s dinners have packed out the Sports Park’s function room to hear rugby legends such as Derek Quinnell, Phil Bennett and Willie John McBride.

Since its founding in 1967 Wallingford RFC has become a major presence both on the Oxfordshire sporting scene and in the wider context of amateur rugby in Britain. As a club we are committed to build on this success and look forward with confidence to furthering the enjoyment of rugby football in this area for many years to come.
