Rugby is massive at Harper with 3 teams in the University leagues known as BUCS.
Being biggest club on campus we regularly attract over 500 students to our home games. We love putting on a show and for many, a Wednesday afternoon watching the rugby is the best way to socialise and get ready for the big SU night ahead!
There are regular socials on Wednesday evenings, that tend to be hosted in local pubs across Newport. These socials are a great way to get ready for the night in the SU afterwards. The membership fee of £160 will cover coaching, travel to and from games, kit and equipment. Hope to see plenty of new faces this coming season and returning members.
