Across the country RFU are hosting a number of “Pitch up and Play” rugby taster sessions. Specifically tailored to introduce women to the basics of rugby, these sessions are a light-hearted, fun-packed, commitment free way of trying the sport for the first time plus it’s totally free. Our professional coaches will teach you the basics of the game – passing, kicking and, yes, a little bit of tackling too. Come on your own or with your friends (women and girls only!).

It is about confidence and contact, fitness and femininity, pride and performance. Women's rugby is on the rise and there are lots of ways to get involved.
