Rugby

UCC Rugby was the college’s very first club. Since the 1870’s, a powerful sense of community has seen tremendous achievements, shaped some world class players and forged priceless friendships.

As one of the most popular sports in Ireland, the club is proud to be the biggest in Munster, with 4 men’s teams and a women's team. We look forward to another successful season in full swing with many new members. Don’t be shy, reach out to us UCCRFC on social media or email.
