Day of Rugby and Bowling Offered in Ealing Broadway Competition
Shopping centre in partnership with Trailfinders and Gutterball

October 20, 2026
Ealing Broadway has launched a competition offering one local family the chance to experience a matchday at Ealing Trailfinders, thanks to a new partnership with the club and the entertainment venue Gutterball.
Running until Saturday 31 October, the prize combines behind-the-scenes access at a Trailfinders home fixture with a full afternoon of bowling, gaming and food in the town centre.
The winning family will be able to choose either a men’s or women’s home match at Vallis Way, with premium seats included. Before kick-off, they’ll head pitch-side to watch the warm-up from the dugout and then walk out with the players as official mascots — an opportunity usually reserved for club guests and junior members. The prize also includes a guided tour behind the scenes, a post-match media experience featuring player interviews, and a signed Trailfinders shirt to take home.
Once the rugby is over, the day continues at Gutterball in Ealing Broadway, where the family will enjoy a “Baller Package” of bowling, gaming, food and drinks.
Andrew Rollings, centre director at Ealing Broadway, said the partnership is about creating something memorable for local families. The centre previously worked with Trailfinders over the summer, hosting free rugby sessions led by players from both the men’s and women’s teams. This latest collaboration builds on that relationship, offering a prize that blends sport, community and family entertainment.
Families can enter by visiting the Ealing Broadway website, answering a multiple-choice question and completing the online form. The competition closes on 31 October.
