Rugby (M)

Welcome to the University of Strathclyde Men's Rugby Club!

Strathclyde Mens Rugby Club train twice a week on a Monday and Friday Evening 5-6p.m. We utilise the university playing fields at Stepps as well as Glasgow Green all weather pitches during the winter months.

The club fields 3 competitive teams in BUCS leagues on Wednesday afternoon, with our first XV competing against top english universities in the North B division.

There is something for everyone, whether you just want to enjoy the social side of rugby or push yourself and play at a high level. We have a fantastic coaching team in place to encourage player growth and development across all teams.

The club will be running preseason beginning in late august and any potential new members are welcome, for more details fire us a message on our facebook page.

Any questions? Ask away, contact details to reach student committee members can be found on the email link on this page or find us on our social media channels to message us directly.

Membership – what do I need?

1. Sports Union Membership – this is a flat £30 fee for the year (or £20 for one semester) which goes directly back to the club to fund various club activities and operations, including:

• Personal accident and public liability insurance
• Coaching fees, competition entry and transport costs, club equipment and external facility hire

2. Sports Club Bolt-on Fee – we also charge a £70 joining fee for the year (or £50 for freshers, £40 per semester) which is charged to subsidise additional sport specific costs such as buying and maintaining equipment. This fee is charged on top of the Sports Union membership and again, goes directly back to the club and participants taking part in our activities.
