Salisbury Rugby Club has launched a recruitment drive to attract new players ahead of the 2026/27 season.

The club is encouraging people of all abilities to join its men’s and women’s teams, whether they have years of experience or are completely new to the sport.

Salisbury RFC currently fields four senior teams and offers structured pathways designed to support player development and progression.

Pre-season training for the upcoming campaign will begin on July 14, with the club encouraging anyone interested to get in touch.

The club’s women’s section continues to grow and is set to compete in NC3 next season.

Based at Castle Road, Salisbury RFC has close links with the Armed Forces community and regularly welcomes serving personnel, veterans and their families.

Club officials say these connections bring valuable experience and leadership to the teams while also helping service members build community ties during postings.

Anyone interested in joining can contact directorofrugby@salisburyrfc.org or visit the club’s website for more information.
