All three channels will cover Harlequins’ Women and Girls programmes including Harlequins Ladies – who will compete in the RFU’s inaugural Women’s domestic competition – England Women and the Harlequins Foundation’s girls participation and inclusion programme, Switch.
Harlequins Women’s profile can be found by searching @harlequinswomen on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
It was announced in February 2017 that Harlequins’ newly-formed Women’s team was offered a place in the new domestic competition, kicking off in September this year.
Last season the Club was working in partnership with League and Cup champions Aylesford Bulls Ladies who have been formally brought under the Harlequins umbrella for the 2017/18 season.
Harlequins Ladies will play their 2017/18 home matches at both Surrey Sports Park and The Stoop under the guidance of Head Coaches Gary Street and Karen Findlay. The new Harlequins Ladies team will be launched at the Members’ Morning at The Stoop on Saturday 19th August ahead of Harlequins’ fixture against Jersey Reds. An event exclusive to Harlequins Members and their guests, 2017/18 Harlequins memberships can be purchased here.
At this summer’s Women’s Rugby World Cup, Harlequins Ladies will be represented by Rachael Burford, Vickii Cornborough, Leanne Riley (all England), Jessica Wooden, Kimber Rozier (both USA), Manuela Furlan, Michela Sillari (both Italy), Rebecca Rowe (Wales) and Sene Naoupu (Ireland).
In 2016, the Harlequins Foundation launched its Switch programme which encourages girls who have not played rugby before to get involved in the sport. The project is now engaging with more than 600 girls across five schools in the Twickenham and Richmond boroughs and is successfully creating a sustainable platform for girls rugby.
The best way to see Harlequins Ladies in action this season is with a 2017/18 membership, guaranteeing you access to every home Harlequins Ladies match.
Harlequins membership also secures your seat at every regular season home match, including Big Game 10 at Twickenham Stadium amongst a host of other benefits.
Alongside all home Premiership, European Rugby Champions Cup pool matches and Anglo-Welsh Cup pool matches, a membership also secures your seat at all pre-season, ‘A’ League and Women’s Test matches at The Stoop.
