Registration
All members are required to register with the club via the RFU's Game Management System (GMS). You can do this after selecting a membership option on this website, or going straight to the Bicester RUFC GMS portal. Once you are registered, you will not be required to re-register unless you are rejoining the club after a period at another club.

Membership
The running of the club is solely dependent on membership subscriptions, fundraising activities held throughout the year, the generous support of a number of sponsors providing match shirts for each age group, and other individuals who have made personal donations. We make no money from the clubhouse (which we do not own) and have to pay for the use of all facilities and every blade of grass.
To ensure the survival of the club we therefore have a no pay, no train/play policy. For new players, we provide a trial period for three sessions, after which membership subscriptions must be paid. RFU Registration and therefore the ability to play is dependant upon membership.
We offer a range of membership options for players and non-players, available to purchase through the memberships section of this website.
We are committed to ensuring that those for whom money is a barrier to playing should not be disadvantaged - please follow this link for more information.
