Hungerford
RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB
T
he first Hungerford Rugby
Club was established in
1929 when a group of gentlemen
decided to form the club in
the Plume of Feathers. The
team played up until the
outbreak of the war in
1939 and then was not
re-established
until
1984.
At present, the club is based on
Priory Road in Berkshire and their
first team currently competes
in the Berks/Bucks and Oxon
Premier League. They are led by
the team of President Steve Mills
and Chair Robert Cox and the
club is looking to progress under
their guidance.
Last season the team put
together a solid league campaign
as they compiled a record of
eleven wins and nine defeats from
their twenty matches. This saw
them finish in the top half of the table
with fifty one points on the board.
This should provide them with a
solid platform from which to build as they
look ahead to their 2017/18 campaign. The
club has already started preparations to make
sure that they are able to improve this time around
and as long as they are able to retain their current
group of players and can perhaps make one or two
quality additions they should be in with a good
chance of pushing on up the league.
