Exeter Engineers RFC offers training and development to rugby players of all abilities having coached new comers to international 7’s players. The club appeals to students due to its competitive yet social ethic with tough fixtures followed up by fun inclusive socials. Training is on Wednesdays between 2pm-4pm at Exeter Athletic.
