The rugby season runs from September to March every year. The best way to get to know the club is to come down to one of our training sessions. We practice at the Stanley Ho Sports Centre in Pokfulam at 7 p.m. every Tuesday night, with touch rugby on Thursday nights. 

If you decide to become a member, you will be registered as a player in the Hong Kong Rugby Football Union, you will be invited to all our club sponsored social events and you will be entitled to an allotment of Hong Kong Sevens Tickets.

Students, under 18s and under 25s receive membership discounts.

If you are keen to join up or have any questions please contact us at membership@universityrfc.org.hk

It has been suggested by other clubs that we have deliberately hidden our field in hopes of their players getting lost on the way to the pitch. This is mostly untrue and to quell these rumors we have taken the time to post explicit directions to our top secret field.
