At Burton, the 1st XV, Knights and Crofters operate as one senior squad.

There are no divisions between teams at training. Everyone trains together, works together and develops together. Our senior squad includes the 1st XV, Knights and Crofters, creating an environment where players of different ages, experience and ability can learn from one another.

This gives players the opportunity to train and play alongside some of the best players in the club, while providing a clear pathway for those who want to push towards Midlands Regional One (Level 5) rugby with the 1st XV.
