Cornwall Rugby Football Union and RFU Joint Club Development Programme
CRFU Club Facility Audit 2023
Recognising the integral role facility development plays in supporting our Cornwall Rugby
Football Union member club’s growth aspirations and retention needs, Cornwall RFU seeks
to update our Facility Development Plan with the full support of the RFU Southwest
Facilities team.
The first part of this process is to ascertain an accurate up to date facilities requirements of
each club.
The link below will take you direct to the Cornwall RFU Club Facility Audit 2023 where
you can submit your club requirements. This is vital to ensure that your club is considered
and will give the CRFU and the RFU Facilities Team a comprehensive list of prioritised
projects to solicit, direct support, resources, and investment for those projects highlighted by
your club.
Cornwall RFU and the RFU will use the updated Facility Development Plan to determine
priority clubs’ projects for all future investment as/when this becomes available.

CRFU Club Facility Audit 2021 demonstrated that many Cornish Clubs need support for
their identified projects including pitch maintenance advice, changing room and clubhouse
design guidance, assistance through the planning process and investment opportunities. In
Cornwall 92% of clubs responded to this audit and several are now benefiting from new
funding. As part of the RWC 25 Legacy Programme there will be several new funding
tranches available over the next 3 years and information can be found in the link below:
