Macclesfield Rugby Club is at an important moment in its future, and we need the support of our players, parents, members, former players and wider community.
Our planning application (26/3523/FUL) has now been submitted to Cheshire East Council. This is a hugely important step towards securing the future of the club, allowing us to grow, develop our facilities and continue providing opportunities for people of all ages across our community.
But we need to make our voices heard.
Objections have already been submitted, and it is vital that the council also sees the strength of support for these plans.

Macclesfield Rugby Club is a huge part of our local community. It brings people together, supports young people, creates opportunities, provides facilities and gives so many people a place to belong. We want to make sure that continues for future generations.
