About Us

Telford Raiders are a forward-thinking Rugby League club that aims to create positive, safe and inclusive environments for all players, spectators, match officials, volunteers and coaches involved in Rugby League.

We strive to play the sport we are passionate about in an open, inclusive environment that fosters a real sense of belonging. We are proud of our reputation for being competitive on the pitch and welcoming off it.

We run teams for adult men, women, youth players, Masters and also have an active Touch rugby group. We also support the Shrewsbury Lions RLFC a junior club who are a satellite of the Raiders.

Our Men’s Senior Team, known for their grit and determination, stands as a beacon of athletic excellence and sportsmanship in the league. Comprising a diverse group of talented players, each bringing their own unique skills and experiences to the pitch, the team embodies the Raiders’ ethos of hard work, respect, and community. On and off the field, these athletes not only showcase thrilling rugby performances but also engage actively in community events, representing the true heart and soul of Telford Raiders. Join us in cheering them on as they tackle challenges, celebrate victories, and continue to write their inspiring story in the world of rugby league.

Our Touch Rugby team is a testament to the club’s commitment to diversifying the sport and offering a fun, engaging way to enjoy rugby for all ages and abilities.

Our Mission & Vision

Our player focussed coaching philosophy is centred on skills acquisition and development, team play, and fun. The Raiders have a long history of youth and junior coaching and have seen many players move on to further their rugby careers with professional clubs St Helens, Wigan, Warrington and Castleford, the armed forces Army and RAF, and universities Liverpool John Moores, Leeds, Oxford, Nottingham, Manchester, Gloucester and more.  We pride ourselves on how many of our youth players transition into our senior team.

None of this happens without a fantastic group of volunteers, coaches and administrators, who are focussed on giving all our players opportunities to thrive, to develop into life-long participants and to grow Rugby League outside its traditional heartlands. Their support makes it possible for more individuals to access activity beneficial to physical and mental health. It helps us build a club we all in our local community can be proud of.
