Newport RUFC like so many clubs in our area have built their success on the old social ethos of the game. In todayʼs highly competitive league structure not all players want the pressure that is associated with training twice a week and a full on league match on a Saturday.

Fortunately social rugby is still alive and kicking at Newport and is championed by our third fifteen whose style of play and enjoyment of the post match celebrations win or lose, epitomises the old social and amateur values of our game.

We have a growing fixture list mainly against local sides to keep traveling to a minimum. So if you fancy a run out on a Saturday afternoon mixed in with a heavy dose of old fashioned camaraderie then call Sean Dourish AKA "Basso" or as some may know him "Glasso"
