South Leicester RFC
South Leicester Rugby Football Club is an English rugby union team based in Wigston, Leicestershire - just south of Leicester. The club runs two senior sides, plus a colts side and a full set of junior teams.[1] The first XV were playing in the Midlands Premier, the fifth tier of the English rugby union system, following their relegation from National League 2 North at the end of the 2018-19 season, however, due to a run of bad results and a number of players leaving the club, they have withdrawn from the Midlands Premier.
