OXFUNIRFC
Oxford University Rugby Football Club (OURFC) has a long and illustrious history of sporting distinction and remains one of the world’s leading and most renowned amateur rugby clubs.
Founded in 1869, some fifteen months before the foundation of the Rugby Football Union, the story of rugby in Oxford is nearly as old as that of rugby itself. During this time, more than 300 Oxford players have gained representative International honours; including Phil de Glanville, Karen Jones, Joe Roff, Diane Nixon, Tyrone Howe, Anton Oliver, Heather Lockhart, Simon Halliday, David Kirk, and Rob Egerton.
Oxford remains a breeding ground for Internationals, such as Manon Jones (Wales), Bianca Coltellini (Italy), Laurel Chor (Hong Kong), Nick Civetta (USA), Tom Mitchell (England 7’s Captain), and Will Rowlands (Wales), who received his first cap in the 2020 Six Nations.
