The Problem
A cancellation comes in. A blank Saturday appears. The phones start. The WhatsApp messages go out. The emails fly. By Friday night it might be sorted — or it might not.
This isn't a one-off. This is every week of the season, for every team, at every club in the country. And it doesn't have to be.
The financial reality
A blank home Saturday costs your club in bar income, match fees, teas and hospitality. One blank Saturday costs more than a full year's subscription to Rugby Matchmaker.
Thursday, 7:43pm
The fixture secretary is calling clubs they may or may not have a contact at. The team manager is messaging anyone who might know someone. The captain is trying to sort his squad while simultaneously not knowing if there's even a game.
The head coach can't plan a session because nobody knows if they're playing. The Director of Rugby is fielding calls from all of them.
By Friday night it might be sorted. Or it might not.
Rugby Matchmaker fixes this.
How It Works
Download the app, create your club profile, and add your teams. The first person to register becomes club admin and can approve additional members.
When a date comes up blank, post it on the platform. Every club on the network can see it immediately — no emails, no calls required.
Browse available clubs by date, location, and team level. Send a fixture request directly through the app in seconds.
Message directly in the app. Agree the details. Confirm the fixture. Saturday sorted — without the Wednesday night phone marathon.
Built For The People Who Keep Clubs Running
You've been doing this for years on a spreadsheet and a contacts list. Rugby Matchmaker doesn't replace your knowledge — it gives you the tool you should have had all along.
Managing squad logistics, kit, travel and availability — while not knowing if there's even a game to prepare for. Rugby Matchmaker means you can plan the week, not just react to it.
Know your fixture list is being looked after. Get notified when games are confirmed. Focus on getting your squad together, not finding someone to play against.
Overseeing multiple teams, fielding calls from captains, coaches and managers. Rugby Matchmaker gives every team the same tool — and gives you your evenings back.

Built By Someone Who Gets It
Founder · Sports Matchmaker Ltd
The founder has played over 500 senior games for his club since the age of five. He's captained multiple teams, served as Director of Rugby, and still plays and coaches every week — from the senior XV to the U7s.
Rugby Matchmaker wasn't built by a tech company that spotted a market. It was built by someone who has spent forty years living the fixture problem — and decided it was time someone fixed it.
"I know what it's like to spend a Wednesday night trying to find a game for Saturday. Every fixture secretary in the country knows that feeling. I built this so nobody has to do it that way again."
