Durham County Girls Rugby

We encourage girls to play rugby to the highest standard they can achieve. Their next level of progression is to the Durham County Girls squad.

The Durham County U16 squad is coached by Jo Hull and our very own Rob Thomson and is open to girls from clubs throughout the Durham County — the RFU uses the old county boundaries so that includes Gateshead and South Tyneside in the north of the county as well as Darlington and Hartlepool in the south.

The girls shown here have moved on. Some are now playing for senior women's sides, regional rugby, and even England!
