Club History

In an attempt to bring rugby to the Heart of Massachusetts, Rob Anderson and Peter Coz recruited player-coach Mike Minty and founded the Worcester Rugby Football Club in the Spring of 1979. The Club took the field in white shorts, black socks with white tops, and black shirts with a gold upright lion emblazoned on the left breast. The kit was changed to all black in 1984, but the lion is still there. Recently the Club has adopted the nickname "Wormtown" and sports the logo of a feisty, rugby-playing worm emerging from a rugby ball.
