Who We Are
Derwent Park Rangers is Workington’s only youth rugby league club, run entirely by dedicated volunteers who believe every child deserves a safe, supportive and inspiring place to grow. We provide opportunities for young people across our community to stay active, build confidence and experience the positive values of teamwork, discipline and belonging.

As a volunteer-led club, we rely on the generosity of supporters to give our young people the environment they truly deserve.
How We Will Spend the Money

Every penny will be invested in providing a better, safer experience for every child who steps through our gates.
