Northampton Saints and Virgin Active extend partnership

Northampton Saints are delighted to announce the renewal of its partnership with Virgin Active, continuing the relationship with the leading Wellness brand as Saints’ Exercise and Wellness Club Partner.

Virgin Active first joined forces with Saints in October 2025, with the partnership giving the Club’s players and staff access to the premium fitness, wellness and recovery facilities at its two Northampton clubs, Virgin Active Riverside and Virgin Active Collingtree. 

Following a successful first year of the partnership, the renewed agreement will see Virgin Active continue to complement the Club’s performance programme, providing Saints’ playing and performance staff with additional facilities for conditioning, wellness and recovery.

Northampton Saints’ Chief Executive, Julia Chapman said: “We’re really pleased to be extending our relationship with Virgin Active following such a positive first year together.

“This partnership delivers genuine value across the Club. Our performance team and players have been able to make excellent use of Virgin Active’s facilities, and it has given us another way to enhance the environment and support we provide to the squad.

“We’re looking forward to building on what we’ve achieved together and developing the partnership even further.”
