Lasswade Rugby Football Club are based in Bonnyrigg in Scotland. Established in 1921, the club plays at Hawthornden and competes in Scottish National League 2.
In 2003 the club sold one of its three pitches to the Local Authority to fund the improvement of the existing facilities. The money has been ploughed into development with two international size floodlit pitches complemented by a 350-seater grandstand. The new facilities have been used by South Africa, France, New Zealand, Edinburgh Rugby, the Scotland 7s squad and the Scottish Women’s Rugby Squad as a training ground. It has also been host to several champagne ties including Scotland under-19s v Italy under19s and a number of Scotland Women’s Six Nations matches.
