Portland Rugby Football Club (Maine)

Portland Rugby Football Club is the oldest rugby club in the state of Maine having been founded in 1969. Since, the team has been playing in a Division II men's league, which is attributed to the New England Rugby Football Union. The team welcomes players of all ages and experience levels, ever willing to teach the game to new players.
==History==

Originally, the club began in Brunswick, Maine, approximately 25 miles north of Portland. Bowdoin College offered both new players as well as facilities. The team had access to athletic facilities, locker rooms, a playing field, and a practice field. The nearby Brunswick Naval Air Station provided players who had rugby backgrounds. In this scenario, the club began to grow, attracting more players. While the club drew interest to surrounding Brunswick residents, players from Portland began joining the team. As more and more Portland players joined the team, it became increasingly difficult for the Portland players, who made the majority of the team, to travel to and from Brunswick nearly four times a week. In 1974, plans were drawn up and the club was moved to Portland, while the Bowdoin College Men's Rugby Club stayed in Brunswick. While playing fields were a little bit more difficult to acquire, local restaurants and bars in Portland's Oldport offered exciting postgame festivities, of which both the club and the opposing club were able to enjoy together. With the move, the team accepted even more new members and found many loyal fans. In 1979, the team won its first Division I championship in the New England Rugby Football Union. The club has also gone international, touring Ireland in 1978, 1982, 1989 and 1994, and England and Wales in 1985. In 1996, Rocco Frenzilli, a former player, founded the Portland Youth Rugby Club, teaching the sport to high school students in the surrounding areas.
