The University of Georgia Rugby Football Club (UGARFC) was founded in 1967 by Brian Finch, Jim Bruce, Graham Hollway, Tom Jones, Joey Langley, and John Timmons. The UGARC is not only the oldest club sport at the university, but one of oldest rugby clubs in the Southern United States. 

Throughout its history, the team has produced multiple Select Side and Collegiate All-American players, sent multiple players overseas to play, participated in tournaments across the U.S. and hosted visiting teams from all over the world. The club is also very proud to have produced a number of active rugby coaches and referees helping spread the word about the positive impact rugby can have on an individual.
