Great to read The Rugby Paper article this morning. Some major shoutouts to names past and present for contributing to our fantastic history. Some amazing sides mentioned (2002, 2007, 2014, 2020) - all reminding us of the club we are all a part of. Thanks Brendan Gallagher #WeAre

Well worth a watch on how the game may look going forward! So much to gain from rugby in whatever format.#rugbyunion

The third episode of QEH Talks Sport is now live! Great to hear Tom Williams talk with Elizabethan Toby Osborne and answer questions sent in by QEH pupils. See the episode at qehbristol.co.uk/senior/sport/q… #qehsport #qehcharacter

These two are truly inspiring!

We’ve been incredibly fortunate to have AJ Davis coming up to Failand throughout the summer holiday running some fitness sessions. He was also up today at the start of pre season putting the boys through their paces! Great to be back!!

4 members of the Bristol Bears 🐻 squad now have 100 first team appearances Mitch Eadie Joe Joyce Callum Sheedy Andy Uren all graduates of the academy

Delighted that 3 of our U6th got to play some rugby over the weekend. Monty (Capt), Cassius (V-Capt) & Will (Pack Leader) all played in the Quins Vs Irish u23 match yesterday. Nice to see 6 other recent leavers in the teams to make 9 Wellingtonians involved in the game. #WeAre

Brilliant to have 5 OWs playing PREM Rugby this weekend. Fitz (below) & Max for Bristol Bears 🐻, Tom & Ben for London Irish plus Brett for Harlequins 🃏. With 3 recent OWs in the Eng u20s & another 4 current students in u18 camps we hope to see more more OWs in the Prem soon. #WeAre

What a cracking start to our rugby tour here in Toronto. An early morning training session followed by a day of sightseeing - including a trip up the CN TOWER and a Toronto Blue Jays home win! QEH Bristol #qehrugby

Another cracking day on tour up in Ottawa. White Water Rafting followed by dinner cooked on campfire. Thank you @esprit for an amazing couple of days of Water sports and bonfires on the beach!

Thank you Taunton School for a great block of fixtures today. Honours shared across all age groups and some lovely rugby played in the beautiful sunshine! A wonderful tribute to the QEH ‘father of rugby’ Dave Perkins. #qeweylegend #pollyperkins QEH Bristol

Converting his own try Callum Sheedy has 1,028 points in Bristol Bears 🐻 1st team games moving ahead of Adrian Jarvis - now the 7th highest points scorer for the club

The club is devastated to hear of the tragic passing of hugely popular former player Nick Koster at the age of 34. Rest in peace, Nick.
