It is with regret that we must sadly share the news of the recent passing of Steve Blackwell. Also known as Swarf or Swarfy, Steve was a popular Bexley RFC stalwart, playing in the backs, usually at outside centre, in the 1980s and 90s. Steve captained the infamous and hugely successful Bexley 5th Team in the early 80s when only one out of 25 games was lost at the very end of the season. In the changing rooms afterwards, Steve sat down, dropped his head and famously said ‘is this the end of rugby as we know it?!’.


Bexley Rugby Club members past and present send our condolences and respectful wishes to his family.

Our U7/8s, U9s and U10s had a great day at the Westcombe Park Festival last weekend. All teams were a credit to the club, showing skill tenacity and teamwork.


The U7/8 played and gelled well as a team, showing some great skill and passing. Their opponents were Old Colfeians, Maidstone, Beckenham and Bromley.


In our drive to ensure all players get a chance to enter festivals, our U9s joined up with Swanley to make a 'Barbarians' team. it was commented that 'they played so well, you would never known they had not played together before', a wonderful sentiment and recognition for them all. Their oppornents were Old Colfeians, Dartford Valley, Old Elthamians, and Maidstone.


As at previous festivals, our U10s joined up with Park House and had a successful day. Great skill was observed and excellent play by the team. Their opponenets were Brighton, Beckenham, Medway and Maidstone.


Overall, a great day for Bexley Rugby mini section. If you want to see them in action, next Sunday there is another festival at Avery Hill, near Eltham (SE9 2PQ), why not come along and support us, first match starts at 10am for all age groups.
