Story
COVID-19 has taken its toll on many businesses and Ayr Rugby has been no exception. We have had to close all our facilities since March and therefore we have been missing our regular income from the bar and match day entrance fees.
We were also extremely sad to miss out on our summer beach rugby tournament as part of our popular "Land O'Burns Weekender". This is usually one of our biggest fundraiser weekends of the year and we rely on its success to fund our club's day to day expenses and running costs throughout the rest of the year.
We are asking our members, friends, supporters and wider community to come together and help fund the re-opening of our facilities. On top of the regular summer maintenance of our clubhouse and grounds, we now have additional costs that this pandemic has brought. We are working hard to ensure that Millbrae is safe for everyone to return, whether that is for team training sessions or a pint in our sunny beer garden. If you would like to see a return to these activities, please donate on this page. This could be anything from the few pounds you would normally have spent on a drink or lunch on a Saturday, to the cost of a new beer garden bench, to buy a mobile hand-sanitiser unit for one of our teams to take to training sessions, to the cost of the paint for the rusty supporters stand.
If you are unable to contribute financially but still want to help, please contact us via email as we are always looking for willing volunteers.
Hope to see you on the pitch/in the beer garden/on the sidelines very soon.
Many thanks on behalf of Ayr Rugby Committee.

4 years agoWe are absolutely delighted to have reached our target this weekend. Thank you to everyone who has supported us!! This will go a long way in helping us make adjustments to how we do things at Ayr Rugby. The situation is very changeable at the moment with adult training paused for the time being. However, we are pleased to say our youth teams are continuing to train and are enjoying being back. Keep an eye on our social media channels for all the latest information.

4 years agoThe donations this week have helped us to prepare the clubhouse and beer garden for our opening today at 4pm. We have been very busy behind the scenes putting new H&S measures in place. We can't wait to welcome our members and supporters back to Millbrae. Next week we look forward to planning how our playing squads can come together and train again. This involves a lot of careful consideration, with coaches and staff completing training courses. Keep an eye on our social media channels for all the latest information.
