We provide training and competitive matches for players of all experience levels and abilitIes, working with other clubs to grow the women’s game. We are currently building brand new Changing Rooms, with generous support from our supporters, the RFU and many others, that will give the Crimsons state of the art facilities to support their rugby journey.
The teams are coached by experienced coaches, with experience of men’s and women’s rugby, under the guidance of our Director of Rugby, Vicky Fleetwood, former Saracen and England International and a World Cup winner.
Girls rugby is a major focus of England Rugby, and as a club we are proud to offer girls of all ages and abilities the opportunity to enjoy this great sport.
We play competitive matches with London and Kent clubs and beyond, go on trips to watch internationals and other professional matches, and have great social events
To benefit from all that our club offers and to officially play in matches and tournaments all players are required to become a member of the RFU & OCRFC. This ensures that we can fulfil our duty of care to your child and that we are complying with our child welfare responsibilities.
Head over to our Membership page for all the info.
We understand that paying for your child’s membership can be difficult at times and therefore we have 2 options available that might be of assistance.
Your Team Manager can help with both options and if you are applying for club funding then you can also send them a completed Financial Assistance form .
Old Colfeians adhere to the RFU’s requirements on child/U18s safety.
We require our volunteers to hold a current DBS certificate, to have undergone a RFU safeguarding course and to follow club and RFU safeguarding policies.
