The club runs a 1st and 2nd XV so there is plenty of opportunity for new players and members of the local community to come down and enjoy either playing for or supporting their local rugby team on saturday afternoons. The club enjoys a wide range of social events throughout the year.

East Dorset then & Now

East Dorset Rugby Club was known as Portcastrians until 2003. Under guidance from the RFU the name was changed to attract more local players and sponsorship; a decision that has worked well to achieve both. Portchester School games master Niel Grant founded the club in 1966. Matches were first played at Merrick Park in the center of Bournemouth, with local pubs being patroned for post game socialising. The main haunt of those early years was the Cricketers Arms in Springbourne. more
