Midlands Hurricanes RLFC is a professional rugby league club based in Birmingham, England. The Hurricanes compete in the Betfred League One competition of the Rugby Football League which sits just below the Betfred Championship and Betfred Super League.
The club re-branded from Coventry Bears in 2022, who had previously developed the sport since 1998 in the West Midlands and was a very successful amateur club until it joined the semi-professional ranks in 2015. Following 23 years playing in Coventry, the club remains based in the West Midlands but in the UK’s Second City - Birmingham.
The vision of the Hurricanes is to bring together the rugby league community in the Midlands whilst growing the club both on and off the field. Our aim is to develop new supporters and players within one regional club that represents this large geographic area of untapped potential for rugby league.
2024 represented our most successful season to date, with the Hurricanes finishing in 5th place and making the Betfred League One Playoffs for the first time. We want to go one step further in 2025 and we would love for you to be a part of that journey.
