Before the boots get hung up for a breather, we managed to grab some of our players and coaches for the obligatory end‑of‑year pics before everyone heads off for a well‑earned break.

But we’re not done just yet - we’ve got our end‑of‑season awards night, the Rebelles are off to Walkerburn 7s, and one more Riots session to round things off!

Plenty more to share over the week as we wrap up an unforgettable season.

𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘆

We were back at Murrayfield yesterday - but this time for a different kind of thrill seeking. We joined over 400 coaches, volunteers, and officials from across the country at the Community Game Conference, all coming together to share ideas, challenges, and inspiration for the future of rugby.

Unsurprisingly, our focus was firmly on women and girls’ development and leadership, but we also squeezed in a brilliant skills workshop with (thanks for the fan pic at the end 🤗).

So many fantastic speakers, so many ideas buzzing around our heads, and plenty we’re taking back to the Club.

Thanks and for a brilliant day of learning and connection (and for the freebies too!).

🔴⚪️ Growing the game, one conversation at a time.

𝗠𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗮𝘆𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 - 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲!

After getting a buzz from watching Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance (SCAA) land on the Murrayfield/Hive back pitches, five members of Team R and R swapped terra firma for the heady heights of the national stadium roof……only to whizz back down again via ropes and carabiners with big smiles all the way.

As much as the team love rugby (the pitch looked fabulous and the views across the capital were absolutely incredible), they were up there for a very good cause. SCAA saves lives across Scotland every single day, responding to emergencies where every second counts. One of the pilots told us it costs around £3,000 𝗔𝗡 𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗥(!) to run the helicopter - and SCAA relies entirely on public support to keep flying.

So far, the team has raised £1,565 (at the time of writing). If you are able to donate anything at all, it truly makes a diference. Links to our team fundraising pages below. Thank you so much for your support and thanks to the organisers for such a smooth, well run event!

𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝗮 𝘄𝗶𝗻!

A group of Riot girls represented Peebles High School at the Girls’ U14 T1 Festival at Netherdale today, delivering an impressive set of performances.

Their opening match finished in a draw against Selkirk B, before the girls found their stride with four consecutive wins over Melrose, Hawick, Selkirk A, and our chums from Gala.

Those results secured a place in the cup final, where they faced Selkirk B once again - this time coming out on top to take the tournament win.

There were strong contributions across the squad, with a special mention to tournament debutants Emilia for her two tries, and to Annie D for her excellent handling and all-round play.

Thanks to Peebles RFC Development Officer Steven for coaching and accompanying the girls to the festival!
