• Giving our members opportunities to improve their rugby skills and their fitness; and

OUR VALUES AND STANDARDS
We enjoy our rugby and aspire to being the best rugby club we can – looking to perform to our potential in every game we play, looking to win the competitions that we enter.

We play as a club and we foster team spirit – Charlton Park is one club, and its teams work together for each other on the pitch, and socialise together off it.

We have a culture of training – all players should aspire to become better skilled and fitter rugby players, and the club will provide coaching opportunities to support this.

We support aspiration – all players who want to improve are able to do so and players have the opportunity to rise through the teams on merit.

We respect our opposition and referees – the traditions of rugby have a home at Charlton Park. We are proud to be a welcoming rugby club. Every member of Charlton Park respects the laws of the game.

We develop young players – players moving up from the youth to the senior section can expect to do so in a supportive environment that develops their talents and makes them feel part of the club.

We are proud of our club – It is the responsibility of each player to conduct himself in an orderly manner when representing the club, either on or off the pitch – when wearing the club crest it is important members do not discredit the name of Charlton Park.

‘Deeds not words’ – at all times, we adhere to the club motto.
