Because of Rugby...

In Exeter, rugby is more than a game - it's about shared legacy, passed from player to player, generation to generation. It's found in muddy boots, roaring stands, and quiet moments of belief that say 'You can do this'.

Our Because of Rugby campaign, created in conjunction with Exeter City Council, is focussed on shining a light on the women and girls who’ve shaped the game as well as encouraging others to begin their own journey. From grassroots pitches to the stage of Sandy Park, this is a celebration of belonging, confidence, and connection.
