Ealing Trailfinders have unveiled a landmark partnership with Nike, which will begin in the 2026-27 rugby season.

Both the men’s and women’s squads will sport Nike-branded kits, heralding the brand’s return to professional UK rugby and symbolizing the start of a new era for the club.

The first official reveal of the new Nike rugby kits is expected in summer 2026, perfectly timed with the team’s pre-season build-up.

Managing Director Ben Ward highlighted how this partnership elevates the club’s stature and matches its ambitions.

The announcement comes as the men’s team narrowly missed out against Worcester Warriors in the playoff semi-final, while the women’s side edges closer to their first Premiership Women’s Rugby playoff spot.

Strategic alliances with WealthFusion and Jackson Swiss Partners also promise commercial growth and stronger player development, enhancing the club’s bright future and deepening community connections.
