BUCS Super Rugby is the top tier of British university rugby. League standings and results live on BUCS's Playwaze platform, whose robots.txt disallows automated access, so they're genuinely not available here rather than a gap we intend to fill by working around that.
What the season involves
| League fixtures | 7 this season |
|---|---|
| Season runs | 14 October to 9 December |
| Match day | Wednesday (7 of 7 fixtures) |
Derived from the fixture calendar below, nothing assumed.
The programme
| Head coach | Dai Young (Head of Performance Rugby); Amber Regardsoe (Head of Rugby) |
|---|---|
| Scholarship | Cardiff Met Sport Scholarships give financial awards (totalling £7,000 over three undergraduate years for home students, £11,000 for international, with postgraduate awards too) plus access to dedicated coaches, in-house support services and integrated academic staff; performance-programme athletes, including Men's and Women's Rugby, are identified through recruitment rather than applying. |
| Training commitment | Team training takes place Monday evening (6-7pm) and Friday evening (6-7pm) on the rugby 3G pitch. |
| Dual-career support | TASS accredited |
