Back for our second year at Newport Rugby Club after a great first year! We chose this club because it strikes the perfect balance of support and challenge for competitive young players — a spirit that reflects our roots. Many of us grew up on this pitch, made lifelong friends, and learned lessons that shaped us. Now, we’re proud to give back to a club that gave us so much.
