The Cape Fear Rugby club was founded in 1974 in Wilmington, NC by 6 like minded individuals who wanted to grow the game in our local area. Over the last 40 years the Cape Fear Rugby club has continued to grow.

We are currently a contender in the North Carolina Rugby Union. We’re always on the lookout for new members who are interested in learning the game of rugby and willing to help us grow the game in the area. No experience is needed, just a good attitude and a willingness to learn.

We hold practices at Flytrap Downs on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 6-8 PM. Home matches are also held at our pitch, typically with a 1 PM kickoff.

Feel free to come out any time. We look forward to seeing you soon!
