At Longlevens Rugby, our Men’s and Women’s Mixed Ability teams bring the inclusive mixed ability rugby ethos to Gloucester. We welcome:
- Men and women from 16 years old (17 for matches), any experience and fitness levels included!
- No rugby experience? Come along anyway! Total newbies through to former players are equally welcome
- A focus on adaptation, not exclusion—so every session and fixture is designed to bring everyone into play
Women’s training is Mondays from 19:00 – 20:30.
Men’s Training is Wednesday 18:30-20:00
What you can expect
- Supportive and adaptive coaching focused on building skills and confidence
- A safe, welcoming environment where effort is praised and growth encouraged
- Flexible training and game experiences, so every player can participate meaningfully
- Strong social connection, from friendships formed on the pitch to club socials or post-training chats

Social
The clubhouse bar is open on Wednesday’s from 6 – 10 pm and serves a range of bar snacks, hot drinks, and cold alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Monday’s is dependent on other bookings so please check with the women’s section for opening.
The social side of MAR is very active with many people forming connections both on and off the pitch, in the clubhouse and outside and is a key positive attribute of MAR.
