In 1880, Northampton Saints Rugby Football Club was formed when Reverend Samuel Wathan Wigg identified rugby as a way to channel the energies of some of the county’s more troubled youngsters. ​ ​ Today, Northampton Saints Foundation continue his legacy, using the power of sport and the values of rugby to bring a lasting change to young people and their community and to be a place, where anyone can achieve great things. As the charity arm of Northampton Saints Rugby Football Club, the Foundation is completely financially independent from the club meaning your support is vital so we can continue to inspire, support and educate young people through our social and education programmes.
