Men’s 1st & 2nd XV
“Competitive, inclusive and proudly rooted in our community — the senior men’s squad represents the heart of Didcot RFC.”
🏉 Who We Are
The Men’s 1st and 2nd XV sit at the core of Didcot RUFC — a club with deep working‑class roots and a modern, inclusive outlook. Based at the exceptional Boundary Park complex in the heart of the Great Western Park development, part of the wider Didcot Garden Town, our senior squad trains and plays in one of the best community rugby environments in Oxfordshire.
Didcot — once described by the BBC as “the most normal town in England” — is changing fast. So are we. We remain grounded, welcoming and volunteer‑led, while embracing the ambition, diversity and energy of a growing town.
📅 Training
Senior training takes place every Tuesday and Thursday at 19:30 at Boundary Park. Sessions are open to all abilities — whether you’re returning to rugby, stepping up a level, or joining a club for the first time.
🏟 Match Days
Both teams play on Saturdays, with home fixtures hosted at Boundary Park. The atmosphere is friendly, competitive and community‑driven — a great place for players, families and supporters.
