Back Edinburgh Rugby Women against the Wolfhounds

7 Jan 2026

Edinburgh Rugby’s women’s team return to Hive Stadium this Saturday afternoon for another massive clash in the Celtic Challenge, and they need the backing of the capital crowd to keep their momentum building.

Claire Cruikshank’s side head into the 3pm kick-off against Irish outfit the Wolfhounds full of confidence following an epic 31-25 derby victory over Glasgow Warriors in Round 2.

While the team celebrated that hard-fought win, Saturday represents a significant opportunity for redemption against an opponent they first encountered in the opening round.

Having slipped to a 34-7 defeat in their previous meeting with the Wolfhounds, the squad is determined to turn the tables on home soil and prove how much they have evolved in the weeks since.

This fixture offers a fantastic chance to bring the whole family along to get behind women’s rugby in the capital and experience the high-energy atmosphere at Hive Stadium.

Tickets are priced at just £10 for adults and £5 for U16s, ensuring a great day out for supporters of all ages.

Make sure to book your place now and get behind the women’s team as they hunt for another vital victory this Saturday afternoon.
