Described by colleagues and teammates as a true ambassador of the game, Fiona Stockley has nearly 30 years’ involvement with rugby as a player and administrator.

Her playing days began at London Welsh in 1994, before she moved first to Newbury, then to Harlequins and finally Wasps FC in 2000. She has also represented England Select, England A and England Academy.

At Wasps, Fiona was not only a player but also sat on the Women’s Rugby Committee. When Wasps FC Women entered the TP15s, she became team manager and trained to become a fourth match official.

More recently, Fiona has been the trailblazer helping to develop the women’s section of the world-famous Barbarian F.C. Establishing the first-ever Barbarians Women side and presiding over the inaugural match in 2017, she has been managing and developing Barbarian Women for the past seven years. Appointed the first-ever female Committee member of Barbarian FC in 2023, she works to ensure greater parity in funding, fixtures and profile for the women's side.

Fiona is a senior manager in the NHS, working for East London Foundation Trust and also a Patron of Rugby School, as well as being a Trustee of the Atlas Foundation, founded by Jason Leonard.
