Club Overview

Established in 1962 North Walsham Rugby Club has been at the forefront of Norfolk Rugby for over sixty years.  Gaining back-to-back promotions in 2020 and 2021 and remaining in National League 2 East for another season shows the calibre and progressive nature of the club.

Family and friends are the driving force at North Walsham with a focus on having a proffessional approach with a community spirit. Well supported with some matches exceeding 1000 spectators we can truthfully say we are a big family.

North Walsham plays the highest level of rugby in Norfolk, on the best pitches with amazing support.  Nestled on the edge of the Norfolk Broads, under 10 miles to sandy beaches, and a short drive to the Fine City of Norwich you could not ask for a better location. 

Partnered with the University of East Anglia and Easton College  were we deliver the respective rugby programmes, we are able to offer support in continuing your education or coaching whilst playing rugby to a high standard.  With a strong supporter and sponsor list we are also able to assist in job placement and accommodation.
