🏉💛🖤 FIRST RUN OUT OF THE SEASON! 🖤💛🏉

The wait is finally over… Lordswood RFC are back!🔥

Today, we make the short trip to Cliffe Crusaders for our first run out of the new season, with kick-off at 14:00.

A massive thank you and huge respect to Cliffe Crusaders for welcoming us and getting the season underway with us🤝🏉 Whatever happens on the pitch, it’s brilliant to see two clubs getting out there, putting the work in and doing what we all love — playing rugby!

But make no mistake… we’re bringing the Lordswood spirit!😤💛🖤

For the players, this is the first chance to put all those weeks of training into action. For the coaches, it’s the first look at what this group can do and for everyone behind the scenes, it’s the start of another season of building something we can all be proud of💪

So if you’re free this afternoon, get yourselves down to Cliffe, get behind the boys and make yourselves heard!📣

MEET THE TEAM🖤💛

These seven people all have different roles.

Different responsibilities.

Different strengths.

But they’re all pulling in the same direction.

And that’s what makes a rugby club special.

Because behind every player who runs onto that pitch, every team that takes the field, every training session, every fixture, every event and every moment that makes us proud to be Lordswood…

there are people giving their time, energy and commitment to make it happen.

So from everyone at Lordswood RFC:

THANK YOU, CHRIS.
THANK YOU, CLAIRE.
THANK YOU, LUCY.
THANK YOU, BEN.
THANK YOU, JOE.
THANK YOU, BEN.
THANK YOU, AARON.

And to everyone else who gives their time to our club — coaches, volunteers, parents, players, supporters and everyone working behind the scenes…

THIS IS YOUR CLUB TOO🖤💛

Here’s to the 2026/27 season🔥

Let’s get behind the people leading us forward💪

ONE CLUB. ONE FAMILY. ONE GOAL💯

🏉 UP THE WOOD!🖤💛

🏉 WHY DO WE PRACTICE 3v2? 🧠💪

It might look like a simple attacking drill, but 3v2 is one of the best ways to develop the decision-making skills needed in a real rugby game.

With three attackers against two defenders, our players have to constantly read what’s in front of them 👀

➡️ When do I pass?
➡️ Do I carry the ball?
➡️ Where is the space?
➡️ How do I fix the defender?
➡️ Can I create an opportunity for my teammate?

But it’s not just about the player with the ball. Movement and communication off the ball are just as important. Players need to support the ball carrier, hold their width, identify gaps and communicate what they see.

For the defenders, it’s about communication, organisation and decision-making — working together to shut down the attacking options and force mistakes.

Most importantly, 3v2 helps players develop the ability to make the right decision under pressure, rather than simply following a rehearsed play.

Because when match day comes, the game doesn’t stop and tell you what option to choose…

You have to see it. Communicate it. And make the decision. 🔥

🖤💛 Train the skill. Build the understanding. Take it into the game.

We take all men of all abilities here at Lordswood RFC and if you’re interested in learning how to play the beautiful game or even if this clip has rekindled the love you once had, pop down to training at -

🏆🏏 THE TROPHY IS OURS! 🏏🏆

Well… it happened. Lordswood RFC have beaten Lordswood Cricket Club! 🖤💛

This year, the Cricket Club decided to make it official and very generously went above and beyond to secure us a proper trophy for the occasion🤦🏻‍♂️

Little did they know… the joke’s on them🤣

Because any trophy is a trophy, and we’ll be taking very good care of this one — in true rugby club fashion🍻🏆😂

Filled with booze.
Drank accordingly.
Trophy treasured. 😉

As always, it was an absolute pleasure to do this with you all again. Two sports, one club and a whole lot of laughs between a group of absolute gentlemen🤝

We genuinely can’t wait to do it all again next year…

Although, if history is anything to go by, you might as well polish the trophy now, because it’s coming back home with us again next year!😉🤣

Until next year, Lordswood Cricket Club

MOVEMENT 🏃‍♂️ TEAMWORK 👏AWARENESS 👀 COMMUNICATION🗣️

What you see in our training sessions isn’t just players running around with a rugby ball — it’s us building the foundations that can make the difference on match day🖤💛

Movement creates opportunities. Making the right run, supporting the ball carrier and constantly looking for space can open gaps in even the strongest defence🏃‍♂️

Teamwork turns opportunities into tries. Rugby is never won by one player alone. Every pass, tackle, support line and defensive effort relies on teammates doing their job for each other🤝

Communication keeps everyone connected. Knowing where your teammates are, calling for the ball, organising the defence and making decisions quickly can be the difference between creating something and losing possession🗣️

And just as importantly, awareness OFF the ball. 👀

Some of the most important work in rugby happens when you don’t have the ball. Knowing where the opposition is, recognising space, anticipating what might happen next, supporting a teammate before they even need you and understanding your role in the bigger picture can completely change a phase of play.

A player might not touch the ball once during a move, but their run, positioning or communication could create the space for someone else to break through.

That’s rugby. It’s about seeing the game, not just playing the game.

The best teams don’t just have talented individuals — they move together, communicate together, think together and work for each other.

That’s exactly what we’re building at Lordswood RFC. 💪🖤💛

Train together. Think together. Trust each other.

Training every Tuesday and Thursday 19:30-21:00 at Lordswood RFC, ME5 8YE👊🏼
