Overview
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. The school 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 Rosslyn Park National Schools 7s. Rugby has a strong tradition at the College, with an established ethos of full participation. In 2024, we celebrated 100 years of rugby with special events, including our inaugural 7s tournament (now set to become an annual fixture).
