This morning, we were on Twickenham’s doorstep celebrating the Women’s Rugby World Cup Final with National Lottery-funded richmondrugby, a grassroots club at the heart of women and girls’ rugby. 💪 Richmond Women played their first international in 1986, and since then over 100 players have gone on to represent their country, showing just how far the game has come. With £170m of National Lottery funding invested in rugby, Richmond’s players are part of a legacy transforming the women’s game. 💪 We were joined by football legend lucybronze and World Cup-winning maggiealphonsi, alongside englandrugby Deborah Griffin, officialsportengland, Kate Peers and worldrugby, Sarah Massey. None of this would be possible without National Lottery players. 💛❤️🖤 #ThanksToYou #RWC2025 #StrongBodiesStrongMinds #WhereWeBelong OfficialSportEngland uk_sport tnluk rugbyworldcup worldrugby englandrugby redrosesrugby richmondwomen tnluk
