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.
All home fixtures will take place at our impressive new home ground: Westcliff Rugby Club (The Gables, Cherry Orchard Way, Rochford, SS4 1YG). The venue offers excellent facilities, including high-quality pitches, a modern clubhouse, a welcoming bar, and a superb viewing balcony that provides outstanding sightlines for spectators. The match-day atmosphere at Westcliff is truly special! Vibrant, supportive, and full of energy as fans come together to cheer on the team.
We warmly invite all supporters to attend our home games and experience the excitement of live American football. Your presence and encouragement make a significant difference to the players and contribute to the strong community spirit that defines the Essex Tridents.
To enhance your match-day experience, food and drinks will be available for purchase at the venue, allowing you to enjoy refreshments throughout the game. Additionally, match-day programmes will be on sale on the day, providing detailed team information, player profiles, and more. For those interested in deeper involvement, our social membership (the 4th & Goal Club) includes a free game-day programme as part of the package, along with monthly entries into our club lottery draw and invitations to exclusive social events. This is an excellent way to support the club while enjoying added benefits.
We look forward to welcoming you to Westcliff Rugby Club for what promises to be a memorable 2026 season. Your support is invaluable as we aim to compete strongly and build on our community-focused ethos.
