Get Involved

There are many ways in which you can get involved at Ealing Trailfinders Rugby Football Club. From coaching rugby to organising social events and tours to sponsoring kit and becoming a First Aider. We have over 100 volunteers across the age groups, without whose help, we could not run the club. There are also opportunities for Youth Players to coach or referee the younger age groups and many use these enriching experiences towards their Duke of Edinburgh Awards.

Last season we were awarded ‘Sports Club of Year’ by Ealing Council who acknowledged the contribution made by our volunteers, players, parents and sponsors.

If you are interested in volunteering in any capacity, please contact the Membership Secretary or speak with your Age Group Manager.
