Why join Ealing 1871?
Here at Ealing Trailfinders 1871, we offer three teams to suit all levels of rugby and encourage all to join.
We are an ambitious club always looking to develop with a long-term goal of moving up the leagues with our fast-paced and exciting brand of running rugby.
We have a dedicated and passionate coaching staff including a level-3 experienced coach, a professional Strength and Conditioning programme and medical services staff on hand.
We are just a 10-minute walk from Ealing Broadway and West Ealing with multiple bus routes running close to Vallis Way. Our players are also on hand to offer lifts to help get you to training and games.
We have close links with the Ealing Trailfinders professional side and regularly benefit from pro player-led training sessions.
We offer professional-level facilities including two floodlit 3g pitches and a gym.
Membership to join is just £250 a year and includes match fees and stash. We’re one of the best value amateur sports teams in London.
We offer four pieces of 1871 stash as a part of your membership for you to represent the club on and off the field.
We have an active and vibrant social calendar meaning it’s easy to make friends both on and off the pitch.
