Dorchester Rugby Club Junior Section has been running for 28 years now and continues to go from strength to strength.  With all age groups from Under 7s’ to Under 16's, we have over 350 players and lots to offer.  All our coaches are qualified to RFU standards and are committed to grass roots rugby, which is where all great players once started.  Everyone has to start somewhere and no matter what your ability is, you can be sure of a warm welcome. Be sure to e-mail us now

Any girls aged 12 or over interested in playing rugby, please keep an eye out for further details on this website, why not e-mail us in the meantime.

Our season starts in September and runs until the end of April. Our training times are every Sunday from 10.00am ‘till noon and the older age groups also train on one evening during the week. 

Our clubhouse, based in Coburg Road, Dorchester has some great facilities for both players and those wishing to hire the hall for functions and with some great training aids such as our junior scrum machine and our highly successful annual festival, we feel confident that you will have a great time with us.
