Wheaton Aston and Penkridge RUFC is a local rugby club playing social rugby in South Staffordshire. It moved from Wheaton Aston to Penkridge over 20 years ago. It has always played competitive rugby for the enjoyment of the game. It was relaunched in 2018 and has recruited more players. At present it fields an adult male team (aged 17 and over).
