“Tom had an outstanding first season with Wimbledon last year—not just in how he played, but also in the attitude and commitment he brought off the field. He’s a natural leader, and I have no doubt he’ll approach the captaincy with the same energy and professionalism he brings to his game.”
— Steve Hill, Director of Rugby

Tom takes on the captaincy as the squad prepares for an exciting campaign, with momentum building from last season and ambitions running high. His consistency, leadership, and presence in the dressing room made him the clear choice to lead the side.

Tom Williams commented:
"Thanks to Steve and the coaching staff for giving me this opportunity. It’s a real honour to be named captain of Wimbledon RFC, and I’m excited to lead such a talented and committed group of lads.

We’ve got plenty of quality and character in the squad, and I’m confident we can deliver memorable performances this season and make our supporters proud."

The Dons take to the field tomorrow evening, 21st August, for their first warm-up fixture as preparations build towards the season opener on 6th September, when they host Jersey RFC.
