Welcome to St Joseph’s College Rugby We have the privilege of offering sponsorship opportunities to leading local, national and international companies. St Joseph's College has one of the best reputations for schoolboy rugby in the country.

A significant number of students have gone on to professional rugby careers. To name a few, Cameron Ives is currently at London Scottish, with Ethan Waddleton part of the England 7s’ squad, while Tom Emery plays for Northampton Saints. Dan Lewis is currently at Bedford, with Lewis Ludlam also at Saints. Ludlam helped the England U20 squad to the final of the 2015 World Rugby Championships.

All these boys have played in the country’s biggest national school rugby tournament, which we host here at the College annually in October.
