What can Wheatley RUFC offer me?
Wheatley RUFC and its two senior teams offer the flexibility to allow budding amateurs to play at a high level of rugby with our 1st team, while the 2nd team offers rugby to those who are just starting or finishing their careers or those who just enjoy playing the game.
Our minis and Juniors aim to make rugby fun whilst focusing on the core values of rugby. During training and matches all children are given the same opportunity to play, not just the strongest.
