Joining forces to push the game in Oldham

OLDHAM RLFC is pleased to announce that it has had another successful and constructive ‘Partners’ meeting with Rugby Oldham, the Oldham Players’ Association, Oldham Amateur League and the Oldham RL Heritage Trust.

The next monthly meeting of the Players’ Association will be this Monday, August 1 at Springhead Sports and Social Club. starting at 7.45pm.
