South Leicester Rugby Football Club is an English rugby union club 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.[http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/southleicester/ Club website home page] 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the end of the 2018–19 season, however, due to a run of bad results and a number of players leaving the club, they have withdrawn from the Midlands Premier.{{cite web| url = https://www.pitchero.com/clubs/southleicester/news/important-club-announcement--2491285.html| title = IMPORTANT CLUB ANNOUNCEMENT}}
