The Tridents welcomed London Olympians to Westcliff in a game that showed plenty of fight but ultimately too many errors to trouble a well-organised Olympians side. Despite a defence that repeatedly rose to the challenge, Essex couldn't find the end zone as London ran out comfortable winners.
The Tridents made the trip to face the Colchester Gladiators in a game that, on another day, could have gone very differently. Despite flashes of genuine quality and a defence that dominated for long stretches, a handful of costly errors proved the difference as the Tridents fell to a 26–7 defeat.
The fixture list for the 2026 SFC1 East season has now been announced, and you can find the full list on the Match Schedule page. This promises to be an exciting campaign filled with competitive fixtures against strong opponents.
At the Essex Tridents, we believe the life lessons of the gridiron—discipline, teamwork, and resilience—should be available to every young person in Essex. However, American Football comes with a unique challenge: the high cost of safety.
On November 28th, the Essex Tridents family gathered at the Westcliff Rugby Club for our annual Awards Night Dinner. It was a fantastic evening dedicated to reflecting on a hard-fought season and, more importantly, recognizing the incredible individuals who make this team what it is—both on and off the field.
The Essex Tridents are pleased to announce Nik Phillips as the new Head Coach of the program.
