To encourage women kick start their fitness routine, Shelford Rugby Club at The Davey Field, is hosting a ‘Warrior Camp’ for any women interested in trying the sport next Saturday, January 20.

Shelford Rugby Club wants to “empower women to find, connect with and free their inner warrior spirit by giving rugby a try and experiencing the dynamic, exhilarating sport of rugby for the first time within a fun-packed, commitment-free environment”.

The Warrior Camps aim to encourage more women and girls to play contact rugby, teaching participant’s key introductory skills and drills within a non-committal, social and fun environment. Participants will be introduced to the basics of rugby, including passing, kicking and tackling, along with enjoyable fitness routines.

The camp runs from 10am until midday.
