Coventry Rugby is pleased to unveil the full fixture list for the upcoming 2025/26 Champ Rugby season. With preparations underway at Butts Park Arena, supporters can now look forward to a highly anticipated schedule packed with exciting home and away fixtures.
The campaign begins with three pre-season matches at home, providing valuable preparation and the first opportunity for fans to see the team in action. Coventry will host RGC, Caldy RFC, and Exeter Chiefs in August and September, building momentum ahead of the competitive season.
The Champ Rugby season officially begins on Saturday 4 October 2025, with an away fixture against Worcester Warriors. We will play our first home league match the following week, hosting Bedford Blues on Saturday 11 October. The fixture list includes notable encounters with Ealing Trailfinders, Cornish Pirates, Doncaster Knights, and other strong opposition across the division.
A number of key matches are scheduled during the festive period, including an away trip to Cambridge on Boxing Day and a home fixture against Cornish Pirates on New Year’s Day.
The regular season concludes at Butts Park Arena on Saturday 9 May 2026, when we welcome Worcester Warriors in Round 26.
Season Memberships are available now, offering access to all home league fixtures and more exclusive member benefits.
