Building the future of women’s competitions togeth
Whatever your role within women’s rugby, from player or coach to volunteer or supporter – your voice matters.
That’s why we’re inviting you to take part in our Women’s Competitions Review Survey.
Help us understand what women value most about their rugby experience and how competitions can continue to support players, clubs and communities.
Why are we doing a review?
More women and girls are involved in rugby than ever before, and we know that the experience they’re looking for can vary from person to person.
With the women’s game entering an exciting new chapter following the success of the Red Roses in 2025, this is an important opportunity for the RFU to understand what matters most to the community.
This survey is not about predetermined outcomes or proposed changes. It’s about gathering meaningful insight to help inform future discussions and decisions.
Through this review, we want to better understand why women play rugby, what motivates them to participate, and the environments in which they are most likely to enjoy and sustain their involvement. The insights gathered will be used to inform recommendations and support future discussions on how women’s competitions can best meet the needs of participants.
Your Views, Helping Shape the Future
We’d love as many people as possible to take part – the more voices we hear, the better informed the review will be.
Add your voice to the conversation.
What happens next?
Once the survey closes, we’ll combine the findings with other data research and engagement taking place as part of the review.
The outcomes of the review are part of a wider project that seeks to align our competitions model across the age grade, women’s, men’s and recreational game. They will be shared with the community game once the work has been completed.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences and help shape the future of women’s rugby.
