Buckfield

Under 16

This season marks an exciting new chapter as the Uckfield RFC and Burgess Hill RFC Under 16s have joined forces to form a combined squad, proudly nicknamed ‘Buckfield’.

The team have quickly gelled into a fantastic group of lads who share a real passion for rugby, teamwork and development both on and off the rugby pitch. With the step up to Under 16s rugby, the squad are relishing the new challenges ahead including contested line-out lifts and 70-minute matches as they continue to build their skills, confidence and understanding of the game.

Our Under 16s squad are a hardworking, positive and committed squad who train and play with great spirit and camaraderie. The coaches and players alike are looking forward to an exciting season of rugby, friendship and progress.
New players are always welcome, whether you’re an experienced player or new to the game, come and be part of the ‘Buckfield’ Under 16s journey.
