Social Touch Rugby at Highland Rugby Club

📍 Where to Find Us

Canal Park, Inverness

We're easy to find and always happy to welcome new faces. Just turn up – no need to book in advance.

First Time?

Just show up! No registration required for your first session. Come and see if you enjoy it before committing to anything.

🦶 Footwear Tips

Trainers are perfect for the artificial surface.
If we're on the grass (especially in winter), boots are your best bet.
Be ready for either – we like to keep you on your toes!

🏝 What to Wear

Dress for the weather, bring your sense of humour, and come be part of the fun.

Communication

We use WhatsApp to communicate session updates, cancellations and club news – make sure and ask to be added to the group when you come down to the club.

☕ The Memories Café

Rugby has afforded us with so many great memories and brought us lasting friendships.

The Club opened its first Memories Café on 5 November 2025 and welcomed older members (we'll let you decide whether you identify as older!) to come to Canal Park and share those old times together with some (optional!) truly walking rugby.

Our Memories Café is not only an opportunity to sit down, have a coffee or tea and recall stories and events. It's also a chance to meet new friends and hear how rugby has enriched their lives.

These cafés run approximately monthly. Watch out on our social media channels to see when the next one is coming up or click on the link below to email our Development Officers to find out more.
