To play for Durham is to carry the pride of your county, the trust of your teammates and the hopes of the girls who will follow in your footsteps.

 

As Durham Rugby marks its 150th year, our Legacy Shirts celebrate the women and girls who have helped shape its story. Behind every number is the name of a woman or girl who pulled on that county shirt with pride, gave something of herself and helped make a place for those coming next. These shirts honour their contribution and give them a lasting, visible place in Durham’s 150 years of rugby.

 

Their names are now recorded for future generations to discover, appreciate and add to. Each new name will have a legacy number and will carry that story forward, connecting the players of tomorrow with those who helped make their journey possible.

 

The money raised will help pave the way for the future of women’s and girls’ rugby in Durham: opening doors, supporting opportunities and making the battle a little less tough for those coming through. Because the true legacy of playing for Durham is also what we leave behind—a stronger foundation and a game that lasts.

 

Wear and display your Legacy Shirt with pride. Celebrate the names that brought us here. Help make room for the names still to come.

 

Together, we keep showing what it means to #playlikeadurhamlass🌹
