Welcome...
...to Loughborough
Rugby Football Club's (LRFC) website. Originally founded in 1891, LRFC was re-founded
in 1929 and has since then been the only Rugby Union football club in the
town. The club regularly fields four Men's sides on a Saturday, as
well as having one of the best attended Mini and Junior sections in
the county. Loughborough RFC is affiliated to the LRU, RFU and RFUW.
The 1st XV play league fixtures in Midlands Division 3 East (North) (click here for fixtures
and here
for league tables & results) and finished 5th in 2007-08. We
are hoping to build on this and gain promotion next season. We reached the
final of the LRFU County Bowl for the 3rd year in succession but
were unable to make it 3 wins in a row, losing to Leicester Forest
12-10 in a closely fought final.

Bowl (April 2007)
The 2nd XV play in Pennant of the Notts,
Lincs & Derby league (click here for fixtures), and the 3rd
XV play in Division 2 of the Leicestershire league (click here
for fixtures).
The 4th XV play
friendly fixtures (though remaining very competitive) and is an excellent feeder
side to the higher teams.
More recently, the
club responded to the popularity of Women's rugby and Women's XV is about to embark on its ninth
season; this year they’ll be playing in National
Championship One North.
The
Mini – Junior Section of the club runs teams for every age group from
Under 7’s to Under 17’s. A downloadable pdf welcome pack
is available here and includes details of the Club Rules, Child Welfare
Policy and Codes of Conduct. It also has a helpful section with directions
to various clubs at the end.
