History edit

Rev. Father E.D. O' Connor, O. Carm, and former president, Joe Flanagan, were the driving forces behind the founding of the club in 1976. The club affiliated to the Leinster Branch of the IRFU the next year.[citation needed]

The fledgling club found little success in their first seasons, but did field two teams.[citation needed]

The club grew over the next 40 years and counts Fergus McFadden as a former youth player. It currently has over 200 mini and youth members and fields two senior men's and one senior women's teams in an amalgamation with Naas, Newbridge, and Portarlington rugby clubs.[citation needed]

The president is Conor Byrne.[citation needed]
