Yeovil Rugby Club

Yeovil Rugby Club is delighted to announce Coneygar Lodge Care Home, a family-owned residential care home in Bridport, Dorset, as the official player sponsor of Rob Cross for the 2026/27 season.

This sponsorship is particularly special, bringing together a family connection, a local care business and a shared commitment to supporting grassroots rugby.

Rob Cross | Yeovil Men

Rob Cross is a familiar face within the Yeovil men's squad and continues to proudly represent the club in the black and white.

As part of Yeovil's senior men's setup, Rob contributes to the hard work, commitment and team spirit that are so important to the club.

With the 2026/27 season well underway, we're delighted to see Rob receiving support from a business with a personal connection to the Cross family.

It's these relationships that make our Player Sponsorship programme so much more than simply putting a business name alongside a player.

Meet the Sponsor – Coneygar Lodge Care Home

Situated in the Dorset market town of Bridport, Coneygar Lodge Care Home is an independent, family-owned residential care home with a longstanding commitment to providing compassionate, personalised care.

Established under the ownership of Wendy and Ted Cross in 1999, Coneygar Lodge has built its reputation around creating a welcoming, comfortable and supportive environment where residents are treated with dignity, kindness and respect.

The home provides residential care for older people, with an emphasis on individual needs, companionship and maintaining a genuine sense of home.

With a relatively small number of residents, Coneygar Lodge is able to offer a personal approach to care, where relationships between residents, families and staff are at the heart of everyday life.

The home has also achieved an Outstanding rating from the Care Quality Commission (CQC), reflecting the high standards of care recognised at its published inspection.

Family Values On and Off the Pitch

There's something particularly fitting about a family-run care home supporting a player with a connection to the Cross family.

At Yeovil Rugby Club, family has always been at the heart of what we do. From the youngest minis taking their first steps onto a rugby pitch to our senior players representing the club every weekend, we're proud of the friendships and relationships that make our club special.

Those same values of loyalty, respect, teamwork and looking after one another are just as important within the care sector.

By supporting Rob, Coneygar Lodge is helping strengthen the connections between local businesses, families and grassroots sport.

Thank You, Coneygar Lodge!

Everyone at Yeovil Rugby Club would like to say a huge thank you to Coneygar Lodge Care Home for sponsoring Rob Cross throughout the 2026/27 season.

Your support is greatly appreciated and helps us continue providing opportunities for players to enjoy rugby at Yeovil.

We wish Rob every success for the remainder of the season and look forward to seeing him continue representing the club with pride.
