Brixham
situation, on both the playing
and financial fronts. With ever-
escalating costs associated with
running the rugby, even for a
well-funded club such as Brixham
with such strong local support,
the difference between profit and
loss can be marginal.
Similarly, the club is well
aware that it has no divine right
to continue to ‘punch above its
weight’ on the pitch. With no
large-scale employment and a
small catchment area already
heavily populated with rugby
clubs, the continued development
of a pipeline of local talent is
paramount to future success.
Mindful of these challenges,
the army of volunteers at Brixham
continues not only to work for
today, but plan for tomorrow.
If the past is anything to go by,
there is a bright future ahead for
the Fishermen.
Brixham
RFC
welcomes
anyone who would like to be
associated with the club in
whatever
capacity,
whether
as new players, volunteers,
supporters or sponsors.

“I’ve been associated with the club
for more than twenty-five years and
have also sponsored them for the last
six or seven. I used to play for the club
in the second row, particularly enjoying
the social side and had a spell as Vice
Chairman and am now a Director. The
guys are doing brilliantly at the moment
and I’m looking forwards to the second
half of the season.”

“I’ve been involved with the club since
1996, playing in the senior teams until
2010 as a winger or fullback. My son,
Lucas, plays in the U9s and is coached
by some of my friends. I get to as many
games as possible and hope the club
continues to be at the heart of the
community.”
