Rosslyn Park Football Club is a rugby union club based in London. Founded in 1879 by departees of Belsize Park RFC and named after Rosslyn Hill in NW3, the club became the first club based in England to play rugby internationally when it faced Stade Français in Paris on 18 April 1892.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.rosslynpark.co.uk/?page_id=87 )〕 In 1912, the club played in Prague, Budapest and Vienna in the first rugby matches ever played in those locations.〔 In 1939, Rosslyn Park inaugurated the annual Rosslyn Park Schools Seven Tournament, which expanded from sixteen schools to 350 in 1996.〔 In 1975 and 1976, the club played in the final of the John Player Cup. The club runs eight Senior men's sides and a ladies side (the "Slingbacks") who play on Sundays. Rosslyn Park also have one of the country's largest mini- and youth- rugby set-ups with sides at all age groups from under-6s up. The first team currently play in the third division of the English league system, National League One. The club plays at Priory Lane, Barnes/Roehampton in South-West London on a ground leased from the next-door Roehampton Club. There is only one pitch on at the main site so additional games are played on pitches in the nearby Richmond Park. Changing facilities for both sets of pitches are at the main site in Priory Lane. The clubhouse has two bars, which are named after two of the club's famous players – Andy Ripley and Alexander Obolensky. The floodlights for the main pitch were famously provided by the hell-raising actor Oliver Reed who was also a member of the club and occasional player. ==Club honours== * Middlesex Sevens winners: 1947, 1950, 1954, 1981 * Melrose Sevens winners: 1951 * John Player Cup finalists: 1974–75, 1975–76 * Courage League National Division Two champions: 1987–88 * National League 3 South champions: 2002–03 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「Rosslyn Park F.C.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
