Big tackles, powerful carries, leadership and plenty of passion for the black and white – Yeovil Rugby Club is delighted to recognise SHEQ Services as the official player sponsor of Club Captain Cal Rose for the 2026/27 season.

At Yeovil Rugby Club, we're incredibly proud of the businesses that step forward to support our senior players. Their generosity helps keep grassroots rugby thriving and allows our players to continue representing the club they love.

This season, SHEQ Services is proudly backing one of the most recognisable figures in our senior men's squad, Club Captain Cal Rose.

Meet the Player – Cal Rose

Leading from the Front

Every rugby team needs players who are prepared to put their bodies on the line, lead by example and give absolutely everything for the shirt.

Cal Rose is certainly one of those players.

As Yeovil Rugby Club's Club Captain, Cal brings experience, physicality and a tremendous amount of passion to the senior men's setup.

Known for his powerful carries, dominant tackles and willingness to get involved in the biggest collisions on the pitch, Cal is the sort of player who never shies away from the physical side of rugby.

Whether he's driving into the opposition defence, putting in a crunching tackle or encouraging his teammates, his commitment to the club is clear.

And, of course, there's that famous smile – arguably some of the best teeth in the league!

But behind the jokes is a senior player who takes his rugby seriously and understands the importance of setting an example for those around him.

Cal's leadership isn't just about what happens on matchday. It's about setting standards, supporting his teammates and helping create the right environment for everyone representing Yeovil RC.

Making His Mark in the 2026/27 Season

Cal has already made his mark during Yeovil's 2026/27 campaign.

One of his standout contributions came during Yeovil's impressive 45–18 victory over Bridport, when Cal crossed the try line as part of a seven-try performance in a crucial top-of-the-table encounter.

It was an important result for the senior men's squad and another example of the attacking threat Cal brings to the side.

His strength, determination and willingness to take the game to the opposition make him a valuable member of the team.

Under the guidance of senior coach Sean Houghton, the squad continues to work hard, develop its performances and build on the positive results achieved so far this season.

As an experienced senior player and Club Captain, Cal has an important role in helping maintain standards, encourage his teammates and contribute to the positive atmosphere within the squad.

With plenty of rugby still to play, we're looking forward to seeing Cal continue making his presence felt on the pitch.

Meet the Sponsor – SHEQ Services

Supporting Grassroots Rugby and Investing in Local Sport

Yeovil Rugby Club is delighted to welcome SHEQ Services as the official player sponsor of Cal Rose for the 2026/27 season.

SHEQ stands for Safety, Health, Environment and Quality, four important areas that help businesses maintain high standards, manage risks and promote safer working practices.

These principles are relevant across a wide range of industries, where effective safety management, environmental responsibility and quality standards play an essential role in day-to-day operations.

We're proud to have a business associated with these important professional disciplines supporting one of our senior players.

By choosing to sponsor Cal, SHEQ Services has made a valuable contribution to Yeovil Rugby Club and demonstrated its commitment to supporting community sport.

At grassroots level, partnerships like this are incredibly important.

Behind every player pulling on the black and white shirt are businesses, volunteers, supporters and families who help make rugby possible.

SHEQ Services is now part of that support network, and we're delighted to recognise its involvement throughout the season.

Why Business Support Matters

For community sports clubs like Yeovil RC, business sponsorship is about much more than financial assistance.

It's about developing relationships that benefit both the club and the organisations supporting it.

We want our members, players and supporters to recognise the businesses that invest in our rugby community.

Through our player sponsorship programme, SHEQ Services will receive recognition across our social media platforms, matchday communications and club website.

As Cal continues representing Yeovil, the business supporting him will be recognised alongside his achievements.

We encourage our members and supporters to remember SHEQ Services and support the businesses that support Yeovil Rugby Club.

The Responsibility of Being Club Captain

Being Club Captain comes with responsibilities that extend well beyond matchday.

Rugby clubs are built on teamwork, respect, enjoyment, discipline and sportsmanship, and experienced senior players have an important part to play in demonstrating those values.

For Cal, that means helping lead by example, maintaining standards and encouraging those around him.

The senior men's section brings together players with different levels of experience, from established members of the squad to those finding their feet in senior rugby.

Having experienced players willing to offer encouragement and leadership is an important part of building a successful club environment.

Working alongside coach Sean Houghton and the wider senior squad, Cal is part of a group determined to keep Yeovil moving forward.

The club has enjoyed some excellent results during the early stages of the 2026/27 season, and the challenge now is to continue building on those performances.

As Club Captain, Cal will undoubtedly have an important part to play in that journey.

And with the backing of SHEQ Services, he has a business proudly supporting him throughout the season.
