About Us

London Scorpions formed in 2012 as a union between Gurus and London Otters. A number of our founding members remain actively involved in the club today.

London Scorpions competes in England's top tier domestic competition, the National Touch Series and the growth of our club has recently seen us field teams into the Emerging Touch Series.

We have built strong ties with Bath and Loughborough Universities as well as London's only junior club, Wandsworth Wolves, creating a development pathway through the sport. London Scorpions have seen more than 40 players reach elite level, representing England or their respective countries at tournaments including Home Nations, the European Championships and the Touch World Cup.

Scorpions pride ourselves on creating a great club culture. We continually seek to grow in a way that is fun, engaging and inclusive for all. Most of all we play with respect for our competitors, coaches, referees, our teammates and ourselves.

We encourage all prospective players, coaches, referees and managers to get in touch.
