Bicester's U13s+ youth age grades and Seniors play at the Bicester Rugby Club Ground located on Oxford Street whilst the Bicester Minis (up to U12s) are located at the Bicester Sports Association (BSA) Ground on Akeman Street, Chesterton, only 5 minutes from the main Bicester Rugby Ground.

In February 2020, the club was named national KidsFirst Champions by the Rugby Football Union in recognition of its focus on providing a positive development environment for mini youth rugby.[1][2]
