Guildfordians Rugby is proud to be a community rugby club in the heart of the community, bringing together players, families and supporters from across Guildford. More than just a rugby club, we provide an inclusive and welcoming environment where young people can develop their skills, build confidence, make lifelong friendships and enjoy being part of a thriving rugby family.
Discover, Develop and Thrive with Guildfordians Rugby
The
Guildfordians Boys Section is where the rugby journey really takes off. Open to boys
aged 11 and above, it provides the exciting transition from Minis Rugby into the youth game, creating a clear pathway all the way through to our successful
Men’s teams. We are also proud to have a thriving and highly successful
Girls Section, offering opportunities for everyone to enjoy the sport.
At Guildfordians, we combine excellent coaching, a welcoming club atmosphere and a passion for player development. Following the
RFU Age Grade Framework, our players are guided by a dedicated team of
RFU-qualified coaches, alongside support and inspiration from our senior coaches and players. Our youth section currently spans from
Under 12s through to Colts, providing a structured and enjoyable environment for every stage of development.

Whether your child is an experienced rugby player or completely new to the game, Guildfordians offers a place to learn, improve and make lifelong friendships. Our aim is simple: to help every player become a little better each week, while enjoying the game and being part of a supportive team environment.
We proudly promote the RFU's core values:
• Teamwork

• Discipline
• SportsmanshipThese values sit at the heart of everything we do, both on and off the pitch.
Training & Development
Our players train in a fun, safe and positive environment designed to build confidence, skills and a love for rugby.
•
Sunday Training: Stoke Park, 10:00am – 12:00pm
•
Midweek Training: Most age groups also enjoy an additional evening session on local floodlit 4G pitches.
Our ambition is to play an attractive, competitive brand of rugby that players, coaches and parents can all be proud of, while ensuring that enjoyment remains at the centre of the experience.
Find the Right Age Group
Players are allocated to age groups according to their age at midnight on 31 August preceding the season. For example, an 11-year-old whose birthday falls on 1 August would join the Under 12s (U12s).
