Courtney Treco to Step Down as London Broncos Women’s Captain for 2026

London Broncos Women announce that Courtney Treco will step down as team captain ahead of the 2026 season.

Courtney has been a player since the inception of London Broncos Women in 2021 and has captained the side for the past four seasons, becoming a central figure in the club’s journey from its earliest days. As one of the programme’s originals, she provided vital support to Head Coach Colin Baker in the early years, helping to keep the team together during a formative and often challenging period.


On the field, Courtney’s influence has been significant. Operating in the pivotal half position, she combined game management, skill and composure with strong leadership. She was also a trusted representative of the playing group, ensuring the team’s thoughts, beliefs and values were clearly communicated, helping players feel heard and contributing to the close bond within the squad. Her experience representing the USA internationally and the England Community Lions brought invaluable standards and professionalism to the Broncos environment.


Beyond her playing role, Courtney has been a passionate advocate for the growth of the women’s game. Through interviews, articles and wider roles throughout her career, she has consistently represented the Broncos with pride, championing women’s sport and women’s rugby league across London and the South.


Head Coach Colin Baker said:
“On a personal note, whilst I am sad to see Courtney step down as Captain, I respect her decision, as she feels it is the right time for her. To say that she has ‘done her bit’ is an understatement. For four seasons, I have relied on her support and counsel through the good times and the struggles. Courtney has scored tries, kicked goals, recruited players, and was the ‘face’ of Broncos in the media during the early seasons spreading the word. She will go down as one of the great Broncos Women. Thank you Courtney.”


While stepping down from the captaincy, Courtney will remain a key presence within the Broncos Women programme in 2026, focusing on her on-field peformance and enjoying her rugby. The club is incredibly grateful for her service and for the role she has played in developing London Broncos Women into what it is today, as well as her wider contribution to growing the sport in the region.


Courtney Treco said:

“It’s been an honour to serve as captain of London Broncos Women for the last 4 years, and I’m proud of everything we’ve accomplished together. As I step away from my leadership role, I’m excited to continue contributing on the field and support our new leadership in the next chapter. Looking forward to the season ahead!”


We would like to say a huge thank you to Courtney for everything she has given to the club and look forward to seeing a new leadership group develop as the team enters a new era.


On behalf of everyone, thank you, Courtney.
