MXV PLAYER OF THE MATCH 🏆

John Jones takes Player of the Match vs Edinburgh Uni Medics!

A powerhouse at 13, John was a strong carrier all game and put in a massive shift in defence. Tough carries, solid tackles and plenty of work in the middle of the action.

A well deserved POTM for John! 👏

🏉 WEEKEND RESULTS

MXV | Edinburgh Uni Medics 14 🆚 28 Lismore

First win of the season for the men! A 28 to 14 win on the road gets us off the mark.

And after the Medics’ little claim to Inch Park, we’re happy to confirm that ownership remains with us 😉

WXV | Lismore 5 🆚 24 Broughton

A huge effort from the ladies in their first home game of the season and first game in the Midlands/East Div 1 league. The result may not have gone our way, but there was plenty to be proud of.

Broughton brought plenty of experience, but our ladies stepped up to the challenge and put in a performance that showed exactly what this team is capable of.

Both teams are back in action next weekend.

FIXTURES ARE IN!🥳

Our women’s and men’s teams have their league and cup fixtures ready for the season ahead.

There’s plenty of rugby to look forward to, including a few fixtures that will take us a little further from home. We’ll be raising money throughout the season to help with travel costs, so keep an eye on our socials for ways to get involved.

Here we go💪💪

Meet the men leading us into our 125th anniversary season 💪

Leon is back at the helm, with Robert and Kiel taking on the vice captain roles. They’re bringing plenty of experience, hard work and determination into a season that’s a pretty big deal for the club.

The mission is clear: raise the standards, turn up the intensity, and make sure the boys are giving 100% on and off the pitch.

There is, however, one small matter to address…

Last season, the entire men’s leadership team managed to get seriously injured. So, with all due respect to tradition, we’re hoping the captaincy injury curse has officially been retired 😂

Meet the women leading Lismore into the 2026/27 season 👊

Three familiar faces, three different ways of leading, and one team to get behind.

Louise and Ruth are back in the leadership team, with Merce stepping up alongside them. Between the three of them, there’s years of Lismore experience, plenty of commitment and more than enough energy to get us through the season.

From setting the standard to bringing the energy and the vibes, we’re excited to see what this group brings to the season.

A huge thank you to Megan, who steps down as vice captain this season, for everything she brought to the leadership team. We’re delighted to still have her on the pitch with us.

THURSDAY NIGHT PLANS 👀🏉

The women are taking on Musselburgh Women’s Rugby tomorrow as they get their first taste of matchday action ahead of the new season.

After weeks of training, it’s time to get out there, have a run around and show what we’ve been working on.

7pm kick off. Come down, make some noise and get behind the ladies!💪

10/08/2026

Big welcome to Ruth Lawlor and Robert Anderson as they take on the roles of Secretary and Club Captain for the season ahead! 👋

Both are already well known around Lismore, so we’re very happy to have them stepping up and getting stuck into their new roles. We’re sure they’ll do a cracking job!

A massive thank you to Mark Lane and Kimberly James for everything they’ve done as Secretary and Club Captain over the last couple years, and for all the time, effort and work they’ve put into the club. We really appreciate you both!

Here’s to another big season at Lismore! 🏉
