We want to invite you to bolster our squad, and benefit yours, by joining the Wooden Spoon Partner Club Programme.

By teaming up, we can raise funds to support both your rugby club and projects for disadvantaged and disabled children and young people in your area.

What is the Partner Club Programme?    

Watch our short video to find out more about how you can join in and help:

Open to all rugby clubs in the UK and Ireland, the programme provides an opportunity to work with us to change children’s lives and secure mutual long-term gains through joint fundraising initiatives.

Partner clubs will benefit from our promotional prowess, merchandise, cost-saving savvy, celebrity contacts and strong links with the rugby community

Prosperous partnership

Among the rugby clubs already reaping the rewards of Partner Club status is Ripon RUFC. Andy Proud, the club’s Immediate Past President, said: “Our aim at Ripon RUFC is to be a community rugby club. A great way to demonstrate this is to adopt a charity that is making a difference in our local community.

“It is early days but the partnership is starting to work. Being in partnership with a well-known charity enables us to talk to people who might not have wanted to get involved before. The affiliation with Wooden Spoon is certainly opening new doors and attracting funds to us. People want to see that they are making a difference locally.

“If every rugby club across the country did just a few things like us and donated to Wooden Spoon collectively, then it would make a great difference to disadvantaged and disabled children across the UK and Ireland.”
