Overseas Tight‑Head Prop Wanted – Join Winscombe RFC (Somerset, UK)

Winscombe RFC, based in the beautiful Mendip Hills just 30 minutes south of Bristol, is looking to welcome a travelling overseas men’s tight‑head prop to join our senior squad for the upcoming season.

We’re a proud, ambitious community club with a strong rugby culture, excellent facilities, and a thriving junior and senior setup in both Ladies & Mens. As part of our continued development, we’re seeking a powerful, committed front‑row player who can make an impact on the pitch and contribute to the wider club environment.

What We’re Offering

• If coming from abroad, then free or heavily subsidised accommodation (bed & board with a local host family or club partner)
• Local employment arranged through our network of trusted businesses
• Opportunities to coach across the club – from minis & juniors to senior sessions
• A welcoming, social club environment with solid community support
• Competitive rugby in a well‑structured league with clear development pathways

What We’re Looking For

• A specialist tight‑head prop with high‑performance experience. Other positions available to play where available
• Someone who brings physicality, professionalism, and leadership to the front row
• A player who enjoys contributing off the field – coaching, mentoring, and being part of club life
• A positive, team‑first attitude and willingness to integrate into the Winscombe community

This is a fantastic opportunity for a player looking to experience UK rugby, develop their coaching skills, and enjoy a supportive club environment while living in one of the most scenic parts of the country.
