The VRU has a long tradition of spirited local rugby competition that stretches back over 100 years.

In addition, the VRU has been proud to field representative teams on many occasions against the world’s leading rugby squads, including the New Zealand All Blacks, Japan and New South Wales.

Today the VRU continues its legacy of club and representative rugby, with age-grade boys and girls, women and men donning the traditional white, blue and red kit as they represent their city.
