26/27 Senior Fixtures are Live
The excitement is building across Merton Lane as we officially roll out the full fixture list for the 2026/27 season. With the Men’s 1st XV fixtures already confirmed, we’re now thrilled to announce that the Pilgrims, Canons, Deacons, and Zingari have joined the schedule, completing our lineup of five senior men’s teams ready to represent Canterbury RFC with pride.
But that’s not all.
This season also marks another important step forward for the club as we proudly confirm the fixtures for both our Women’s 1st XV and our new Women’s Development Team. Their continued growth, commitment, and impact across the club reflect the strength of women’s rugby at Canterbury and the thriving pathway we are building for female players of all levels.
From the intensity of competitive rugby to the pure enjoyment of social fixtures, this season captures everything that makes our club special. Every squad brings its own identity, its own energy, and its own story, and together they form the heartbeat of Canterbury rugby.
- The Men’s 1st XV leading the way with passion, determination, and the drive to inspire the whole club.
- The Women’s 1st XV continuing to raise the bar and compete with pride.
- The Pilgrims pushing standards and developing talent.
- The Canons bringing physicality and ambition.
- The Deacons showing resilience and commitment.
- The Zingari keeping the spirit of social rugby alive and thriving.
- The Women’s Development Team providing opportunity, growth, and a welcoming entry point into senior women’s rugby.
Week after week, pitch after pitch, we’ll see players of all levels stepping out in black and amber, competing, growing, laughing, and creating the moments that stay with us long after the final whistle. That’s what Canterbury RFC is all about. So, here’s to another season of senior men’s and women’s rugby in action, to packed Saturdays, to new challenges, and to the community that makes this club feel like home. Whether you’re on the field or cheering from the touchline, we can’t wait to share the journey with you.
Competitive rugby. Social rugby. Development pathways. Lifelong friendships.
We have it all at Canterbury RFC.
