We would love you to join us and Rugby World Cup winner and former England International Jason Leonard OBE as he officially launches the impressive RFU Rugby 365 Artificial Grass Pitch (AGP) at Billingham RUFC.

Part of our Rugby World Cup 2015 legacy of delivering over £50m investment in 100 AGPs across England over four years, England Rugby is delighted to showcase the community’s new floodlit facility, which will allow sport to be played 365 days a year, whatever the weather.

Billingham RUFC would be delighted to have you share their fun day launch of this amazing resource and to show you all the ways it can be enjoyed by local teams, clubs and players.
Entry is free, there will be bouncy castles and outdoor bar, all day rugby and of course the legend that goes by the name of 'the Fun Bus', Jason Leanord himself.

England’s mens most capped player, Jason Leonard will formally unveil the new pitch at 12.00pm, followed by an open Q&A.
