Exeter Chiefs skills coach Ricky Pellow believes news that the European Grand Prix 7s Series is heading to the Westcountry is a major coup for the rugby-mad region.
Tickets, which have officially gone on sale, will see the cream of European Sevens talent descend on Devon on July 11-12 for the final leg of the Series, which also takes in rounds in both Moscow (June 6-7) and Lyon (June 13-14).
With qualification for the 2016 Olympics in Brazil on the line, the weekend promises to be an important competition for the seven-a-side game – and will see the home unions of England,...
‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ maybe the Box Office draw in cinemas up and down the country this Valentine’s weekend, but Exeter Chiefs served up their own smash hit as they saw off Newcastle Fashion with a stellar showing at Sandy Park.
Rob Baxter’s side return to Aviva Premiership action with a bang, producing a six-try performance that positioned them firmly back amongst the division’s frontrunners.
In a one-sided encounter, the Chiefs had the bonus point wrapped up by half time thanks to scores from Jack Nowell, Henry Slade, Thomas Waldrom and a Penalty Try – and there was to...
Exeter Chiefs head coach Rob Baxter says he has a group of players looking forward to returning to Aviva Premiership duty today (Saturday) at home to Newcastle Falcons (4:30pm).
After a month of action which has seen the Devon club advance to the knock-out stages of both the European Challenge and LV= Cups, it’s back to the bread and butter of the top flight for the Chiefs.
Baxter has watched on with quiet satisfaction at the way his team has rediscovered their winning formula – particularly after they lost four successive Premiership games either side of Christmas – and he...
If Exeter Chiefs are to become the first-ever side to reclaim the LV= Cup, then the hard work will have to be carried out in the rugby hotbed of the East Midlands.
The defending champions saw their hopes of a home semi-final blown away by a powerful second half display from Saracens at Allianz Park.
The Londoners produced a rock-solid display, both in attack and defence, to not only see off the Chiefs, but at the same time book their own place in the last four of the competition.
Ricky Pellow believes it’s testament to the quality and professionalism within the squad that Exeter Chiefs are pushing hard for honours on three fronts this season.
Having positioned themselves nicely amongst the Premiership’s leading lights, as well as booking a last eight place in the European Challenge Cup, the Devon club last week became the first side to ensure their place in this season’s LV= Cup semi-finals with victory away to the Newport-Gwent Dragons.
Last Sunday’s 37-32 success at Rodney Parade meant the Chiefs will top Pool Four regardless of what happens...

With qualification for the 2016 Olympics in Brazil on the line, the July 11-12 event promises to be an vital competition for the seven-a-side game – and will see the home unions of England, Scotland and Wales, tackling...
With less than eight months to go to the Rugby World Cup, the final preparations to showcase Exeter Rugby Club’s facilities on the world stage are well underway, backed by a suite of funding packages from Barclays.
Exeter, alongside Gloucester’s Kingsholm Stadium, are the only two rugby club venues in the country that have been selected to host matches as part of the Rugby World Cup 2015 which, according to a study undertaken by EY on behalf of the Organising Committee, has estimated £39m of economic activity up for grabs for Exeter, in welcoming players, fans and visitors to the...
