Consett Rugby Club, with over 500 members—boys and girls as young as five—is thriving and growing stronger every day.

A major milestone for our club is on the horizon—our Under-18s team will be traveling to Chicago and Milwaukee in July 2025 to compete in a prestigious tournament. These young athletes have worked their way up through the ranks and are now playing at the highest level. Coming from diverse backgrounds, many have never had the chance to travel abroad, making this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The experience will not only strengthen their bond as a team but also create lifelong memories and friendships.

Beyond the tournament, the trip will also be an enriching educational journey. The team will visit iconic sites such as the Chicago Science Museum, Lambeau Field, the University of Notre Dame, and the Art Institute of Chicago.

The players have been involved with a huge range of fundraising activities - and Liam is setting himself the target of a marathon (26 miles) bike ride around Kielder Reservoir to raise funds towards his trip - your support is greatly appreciated! ❤️
