Rugby is the major boys ' sport at the Senior School during the Autumn Term and is also played at the Prep School throughout the Autumn and Spring Terms. We field teams across all age groups, from U8 to U18, with regular training sessions and Games lessons held during the week, and fixtures played mid-week as well as on Saturday afternoons. In the Spring Term, our focus shifts to 7s rugby, with Sunday tournaments building towards the prestigious Rosslyn Park National Schools ' 7s. Rugby has a strong tradition at the College, with an established ethos of full participation. In 2024, we proudly celebrated 100 years of rugby at the College with a series of special events, including our inaugural 7s tournament—now set to become an annual fixture.
The hours for this role vary across the three school terms:
· Autumn Term – 45 hours per week
· Spring Term – 20 hours per week
· Summer Term – 20 hours per week
The Head of Rugby will lead our rugby provision, sustaining our pupils ' love of the game, building on our success, and continuing to raise the profile of the sport both at the College and beyond. The successful candidate will have a strong sporting background, with proven experience of change management and expertise in the coaching and management of the sport. They will work closely with the Director of Sport and the Head of Prep School PE & Games as well as with other coaching and academic staff. The College actively supports pupils taking part in tours, and it is expected that the Head of Rugby will organise and lead rugby tours during the holidays. These have been a regular feature over the years, with regular trips to Europe and a tour to South Africa in the summer of 2023.
