A welcome message from our President

Welcome to the fantastic brand-new Blackheath Rugby website! We have had a very strange year with the Covid-19 pandemic. We have had no competitive matches since March 16th 2020, and we have lost almost a whole season of rugby. We are looking forward to a much better season in 2021-2022. As the oldest open rugby club in the world, Blackheath’s …

JAMES SHANAHAN: A LIFE OF RUGBY

Blackheath 19 Bishop’s Stortford 14

A match, the pattern of which, very much dictated by the filthy conditions that swept across south-east England on this miserable afternoon. For much of the contest Bishop’s Stortford held sway, while Blackheath’s discipline crumbled and, easing their way back from an early deficit, looked like they might make it a hat-trick of victories in only their third visit to …

Esher 7 Blackheath 36

Opening day bonus for Blackheath Not the most well-oiled performance but Blackheath will, nevertheless, be pleased with an opening day bonus point win from a venue where they’ve frequently come unstuck.   Indeed, prior to this game, Molesey Road had seen just two Blackheath wins in ten visits, and was the setting where the Club’s promising start to their 2017/18 …

Blackheath 13 Esher 6

Starting with far greater purpose and intensity than they’d shown at any stage in …
