Old Bristolians Rugby Football Club is an English amateur rugby union club founded in 1915 and based in Failand, Bristol. The Club's first team plays its rugby in Tribute Western Counties North. 〔http://www.englandrugby.com/my-rugby/find-rugby/clubs/old-bristolians-rfc-bs8-3tq〕 They are a member of the Bristol and District Rugby Football Combination, an organisation which promotes junior rugby union in the city of Bristol. ==History== Old Bristolians is the Rugby Club associated with Bristol Grammar School (BGS), but now predominantly is made up of players and members who are not BGS alumni. In 2009/2010 OBs won and were promoted from Gloucester 1, and also won the Bristol Combination Cup. In 2011-12 OBs then were promoted from Gloucester Premier to Tribute Western Counties North, again winning the Combination Cup, and finished mid-table in 2013 to 2015. OBs second team won their league in 2009-10, and again in 2011 and currently plays in Gloucester Reserve Premier League with a number of professional clubs. OBs Third team is in Gloucester Reserve League 1. Bristol Grammar School (BGS) was founded in 1532 by two brothers, Robert and Nicholas Thorne, when it was housed in the St Bartholomew's Hospital, as part of the new founding of schools after Henry VIII's closure of the monasteries, where previously a large proportion of England's education had occurred. The school motto Ex Spinis Uvas, which translates as "From Thorns Grapes", is a play upon the names of the school founders Robert and Nicholas Thorne. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Old Bristolians Rugby Football Club」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
