Welcome To NPRFC

Welcome to North Petherton Rugby Football Club

Situated in the heart of the west country, just off the M5, North Petherton is on the A38 between Bridgwater and Taunton. The Club is situated at the Beggars Brook ground on the main road just outside of the town and was established in 1893. We can guarantee that playing or visiting, you will get a warm, friendly welcome.

The club boasts 4 refurbished changing rooms and new floodlighting capable of hosting evening matches. We run 3 senior sides, with the 1st team now competing in the Somerset Premier league following promotion at the end of the 2007/08 season. The 2nd team compete in the Somerset Three South league, whilst the 3rd team play several friendly fixtures throughout the year. We also have a Veterans side, and a minis and junior section covering all age groups up to under-19.

We are always looking to recruit new players of any age or ability. The senior sides, Colts and Under 17s train every Tuesday and Thursday evening from 6:45, and the minis and juniors every Sunday morning from 10:00.
