What is Aberdeenshire R.F.C.'s website?

Updated

aberdeenshirerfc.com is the official club website of Aberdeenshire Rugby Football Club in Aberdeen. It is a club-run platform powered by Pitch Hero Ltd, and it serves as the central hub for the club's fixtures, team information, news, media, shop, and fundraising activity. If you are looking for the club's match schedule, youth reports, historical milestones, or a way to support the club through its lottery, this is the site to use.

What you will find on the site

The site is organised around a small set of main sections, each aimed at a different audience:

Section What it covers
Home Latest news, featured matches, sponsors, and media highlights
Matches Fixture and results information
Teams Club team pages
News Club announcements and reports
Shop Club merchandise
Media Videos and photo albums
Contact Club contact details and location
Lottery Fundraising lottery information
Information Club policies and related documents

The navigation also includes a Login and Create Account option, with email/password sign-in, a password recovery link, and a "Login with Facebook" option. The presence of a login area means some content or features may sit behind an account, though the site does not state that general browsing requires one.

Club background and location

Two details stand out for anyone trying to confirm they are on the right site:

  • 150-year history — The news section includes a thank-you message for "Celebrating 150 Years of Aberdeenshire RFC," confirming the club has marked its 150th anniversary.
  • Home ground — The club is based at Woodside Sports Complex, Station Road, Aberdeen, Aberdeen City, AB24 2UL.

Fundraising and club activity

The site highlights a Club Lottery as a fundraising channel, described as a way to support the club and be "in with a chance of winning £25,000." A separate "Fundraising Club" news item thanks supporters for celebrating the club's 150 years. This tells you the site is not just informational — it is also used to drive participation and financial support for the club.

Media and match content

The Media section hosts photo albums and short videos, including youth and senior match footage. Examples visible on the site include:

  • U15's 7's album (22 images)
  • ARFC U15s v Ross Sutherland (80 images)
  • ARFC v Ross Sutherland (68 images)
  • ARFC U15s v Caithness U15s (48 images)
  • Short clips such as "Try from Scrum - No.9 Finlay Smeaton" (00:33), "Quick Lineout" (00:10), "Game Play" (00:24), and "Turnover for Caithness" (00:15)

This makes the site useful if you want to follow specific age groups or review recent match moments rather than just read results.

Who runs the site

The footer states the site is "Powered By Pitch Hero Ltd," with a copyright range of 2008–2026. Pitch Hero is the platform provider; the content and club identity belong to Aberdeenshire R.F.C. The site also lists Affiliations, Club Sponsors, and policy pages (Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Manage Consents), which is typical of a club site built on a sports platform.
