Club celebrates milestone on Saturday 4th March

What were you doing in 1973? If the answer is playing mini and junior rugby at Olney RFC then the Club would love to invite you back to celebrate with them.

Founded in the 1972/73 season, by Alec Longland, Ian Cox and Jack Brimley. The Club was one of the first to embrace Mini Rugby and saw lads from six to 14 train and play on Sunday mornings. 50 years later, nothing much has changed, and Sunday mornings now see over 400 Girls and boys from six to 16 at the Club.

If you have ever played, coached or volunteered in the Mini & Junior section over those 50 years, we invite you to the Club on Saturday 4th March from 1pm.

Pic attached is our first team photo from all those years ago…familiar names and faces, many still regulars at the Club

Keep an eye on the Club social media for updates...
