***HEAD COACH WANTED PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION***

Based in England, Lordswood, Kent (ME5 8YE), Lordswood RFC is proud to field two men’s teams competing in league rugby.

At Lordswood RFC, we want to take a moment to recognise and celebrate the incredible work of our previous Coaches.

The time, dedication and passion they poured into this club have been nothing short of phenomenal. Through countless hours on the training pitch, matchdays in all conditions and unwavering commitment to player development and team culture, they have helped shape this squad into what it is today. The standards they set, the belief they instilled and the foundations they built will remain part of this club for years to come.

We simply cannot thank them enough for everything they have given to Lordswood RFC. Their impact goes far beyond results — they have played a huge role in the growth, togetherness and ambition of our men’s section and we wish them nothing but success in whatever comes next.

Now, as a club, it’s time to look to the future.

* Our First XV competing in Counties 5
* Our Second XV competing in Rural C

We are an ambitious, community-driven club with strong values, a committed player base and a real desire to keep moving forwards — both on and off the pitch. We are now actively looking for a Head Coach who is ready to take the reins and help drive this team onwards and upwards.

Whether you’re an experienced coach looking for a new challenge, or someone with the passion, leadership and rugby knowledge to help guide and develop a growing squad, we would love to hear from you. This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a club that backs its people, values its community and believes in building something special together.

If you — or anyone you know — might be interested in stepping into this role, please get in touch with us to discuss it further.

And finally, please share this post far and wide. The more people it reaches, the better our chances of finding the right person to help take Lordswood RFC to the highest of heights.

One club. One team. One standard.
The future starts now🖤💛🏉

What a way to finish the season 👏

Huge praise to Lordswood RFC and everyone involved — from the players and coaches to the supporters and volunteers — a proper club effort from top to bottom. Ending the season on such a high with a 58–0 win over Bromley III says it all.

Massive respect as well to Bromley III for making the trip and putting on a great game of rugby. Always good to see you lads — hope you have a cracking rest of the weekend.

🏅 Man of the Match: Coops — absolutely controlled the game and put in a top-class performance.

🎭 Dick of the Day: Aaron — gave away a penalty during a five-minute scrum after deciding to run in and throw handbags despite being 20 metres away… and somehow managed to tackle himself on the way to the try line 😂

And it doesn’t stop there 👊

The Lordswood Valkyries have their final game of the season today and this could be the day they win the league if they get the result. Massive moment for the squad and the club — everyone get up and show your support find out more information here Lordswood Valkyries Ladies Rugby Team 🔥

Let’s finish the season strong across the board. Up the wood🖤💛

What a weekend at Lordswood RFC 💛🖤

After a brilliant home double header at Lordswood RFC yesterday, we kicked things off with the Vikings taking on Sheppey RFC in a thriller that ended 31–26 to the Vikings. A huge shoutout to Craig Belcher, who picked up Man of the Match on his first-ever outing at 10 with an outstanding performance 👏

DOTD went to George Loukaras, details best left unexplained, but those who know… know 😅

Next up, the First XV set the tone perfectly with a dominant 29–7 win over Edenbridge RFC, which rolled us nicely into an end-of-season do that absolutely delivered. Everyone enjoyed themselves, trophies were earned and well deserved and it once again showed what a healthy, welcoming club Lordswood truly is — full of genuinely kind souls.

The club is growing, the vibe is strong and we honestly couldn’t be happier.
The Lordswood Valkyries are one win away from winning the league, so let’s make sure we show them all the support they need next week 💪
The Minis & Youth — the future of this club — continue to grow week by week and the men’s section is still regularly putting out two teams and dominating games.

It’s been a great weekend for Lordswood, but there’s one more thing that really matters…

Thank you 🫵🏼
Thank you to every child, adult, parent, player, volunteer, supporter and everyone working behind the scenes. It truly means the world to us that you love and support this club. We’re incredibly proud to do what we do for Lordswood — because we know we have you behind us every step of the way🍻
