This Season’s Second Team Fixtures (updated 04/11/09)
The committee has decided to withdraw the 2nd XV from Dorset and Wilts Division 3 South for the rest of the 2009-10 season, and will instead arrange regular club development games as we continue our drive to attract new young players.
Confident that with sufficient focus throughout the club we will be successful in this quest, the intention is that Puddletown 2nd XV will re-enter the league next year.
Details of revised fixtures will be advised as soon as possible. Please check this page regularly.
Puddletown Club Shop (04/11/09)

The 2009 Piddle Dash (15/10/09)
The Club hosted the third annual Piddle Dash last Sunday (11th October) with 90 entrants completing the 6 km course. This year’s event has so far raised over £7000 in aid of The Prostate Cancer Research Foundation and the locally based Weldmar Hospicecare Trust, a sum which is already £2000 more than the 2008 total.
In the Inter-Club Challenge Westbury RFC, for the second year running, won the award for fastest team around the course, whilst Puddletown’s own team of Adam Church, Barry Dovell, Geoff Puryer, and Kevin Voss picked up the prize for most sponsorship money raised.
Thank you and well done to everyone who competed in, helped run, sponsored, or otherwise supported this successful and enjoyable annual event.
Sponsorship (22/09/09)
We are delighted to confirm that Dorset Piddle Brewery is now the Club’s Main Team Sponsor.
In a 3-year deal formally announced this week, the Brewery’s distinctive ’I love a good Piddle’ slogan will feature on the 1st XV’s new playing strip with immediate effect, and on the 2nd XV shirts when they are replaced in 12 month’s time.
Both sets of kit will also carry the Prostate Research logo across the shoulders in recognition of the Club’s ongoing support of the Prostate Cancer Research Foundation.
Dorset Piddle Brewery now heads up an increasing list of generous sponsors whose support is so vital to the Club’s continued well-being. These include The Old Ship Inn, Sportsgear, D J Chutter & Sons, and Vivid Commercial Interiors. We thank them all.
