Originally founded in 1965, the club has been a cornerstone of the local community, fostering a love for rugby and providing a platform for players of all ages and skill levels to participate in the sport.
Over the years, Wakehurst Rugby Club has experienced both triumphs and challenges, but its dedication to promoting rugby and instilling values such as teamwork, sportsmanship, and camaraderie has remained unwavering.
