With the pandemic having dramatically affected the last two seasons, the overall volume of fixtures and training has reduced the amount of scrummaging practice that players have received. As a vital component of senior rugby, a strong scrum and the player skillsets required is a foundational element of us meeting our potential on the pitch and developing our players.

The purchase of a scrum machine solution will help improve the skillset of existing senior players, and importantly also provide a safe way to upskill players as they make the transition from age grade to senior rugby.

We are aiming to have this in place for season 22/23. We are specifically looking to purchase an ex-display unit to keep costs down.

Any funds you can donate, however small (though large is even better) will be greatly appreciated. If we exceed our target, any funds will go towards the wider club redevelopment plans.
