Over View of DIRFC & BDI

Our Clubs' aims are to be all things rugby and to extend those attributes into our wider community, and in doing so, get our community involved in all aspects of our Club. We are in the process of completing a strategic review of our club. This has given us a clear focus and defined our direction for the future.

We look forward to another exciting season, which will include welcoming first time JAB players to an enjoyable experience of playing rugby, continuing to develop our entire JAB club and continuing to grow and develop our senior club through the BDI franchise (Burnham Rugby Club and Dunsandel-Irwell Rugby Club). BDI has been operating successfully for the past few seasons and this coming season sees some exciting new initiatives and opportunities which will enable us to achieve our goals and have a trickledown effect that will strengthen our whole Club.

We look forward to utilising the recently completed Dunsandel Community Centre to enhance the Rugby experience by being able to host more teams and supporters at weekends, Club days, and representative fixtures and at special functions throughout the year.

Get involved in our club! We continue to welcome players, coaches, parents and supporters. Everyone can have a role to play in continuing the success of our club.

We welcome feedback on all aspects of our club to help us develop and grow for the future.

We look forward to an enjoyable and successful 2021 season.
