In June 2025, our Mixed Ability Mens and Womens teams will travel to Pamplona, Spain to take part in IMART 2025; in essence the Mixed Abillity World Cup.

Mixed Ability is an adapted variation of rugby where players play alongside one another regardless of ability. Scrums are passive and some palyers wear identification to limit contact.

The first MA side ever formed were the Swansea Gladiators over 30yrs ago and Worcester followed suit in 2016, with the women's side following in 2022. Worcester attended the last IMART (International Mixed Ability Rugby Tournament) in Cork in 2022 and came 6th overall and were the highest ranked side in England. This inspired the members to launch a womens team upon their return which has flourished ever since.

MA rugby also provides a pathway for men and women to play at a higher level and a route into rugby for beginners or those rusty from years of non participation. At Worcester, it's brought in over 100 new members to the club and won numerous local and national awards.

In 2025, we will play in Spain from the 21st-28th June and face sides from all over the world.

What we NEED is a funky, flashy, creartive new kit that reflects our home; the Worcestershire county AND encapsulates our ethos of inclusivity. It must use the club colours Navy and Gold and include the club emblem.
It cant be white either - imagine the cleaning bill!

PRIZES!
The winning design will have their design made into a profressional piece of sporting kit. Our teams will wear it at IMART 2025 and the following domestic season.
The winner will get a shirt to wear AND a framed signed shirt to showcase their efforts
AS WELL as hospitality and a meet &greet with the whole squad on their last home game before leaving for Spain on Saturday 31st May 2025 at Worcester RFC.

To enter, please email your entry to comms@wrfc.info BEFORE DATE
