Professional standards

Not a weekend kickabout. A professional set-up.

We’re not collecting players for a weekend game. We’re building a club that trains like a professional one: a fixed weekly programme, coaches who push your level, proper scrum and contact work, and a squad that holds itself to a standard on and off the pitch.

Mira Highlanders is a club in its own right, with its own coaches, programme and goals. 15s first, with a 7s group drawn from the same squad.

Who we’re looking for

Every position. Front row first.

A matchday squad is 22 players and must include five front-rowers. If you pack down at 1, 2 or 3, we especially want to hear from you.
