Valley RFC
== History ==
Valley RFC was founded in 1975 by a group of ex-members of the Royal Hong Kong Police Rugby Club, some displaced individuals and schoolboys who joined forces to enter a team in the local rugby competition. The result was Valley RFC, so named because of its home in Happy Valley.
Valley’s men of rugby have been running out in Black and Red for the past 27 seasons now and have dominated the leagues for the past decade.
Valley is the most successful rugby Club in Hong Kong and has walked off with virtually every trophy in all four divisions over the past 12 years. In 2002/03 seasons Valley first team went undefeated for 16 consecutive matches taking out the League and then the Grand Championship, playing spectacularly professional rugby. In the same season the coach and captain were awarded by the HKRFU with the Coach of the Year and the Player of the Year respectively. The Top Try Scorer award also went to a Valley player, with a record 25 tries. The quality of rugby played by Valley is reflected in its arsenal of players. In recent years two Valley players have moved on to play in the Super 12 tournament in the southern hemisphere and several have moved into the National First Divisions in European teams. One player from 1999 also went on to represent the New Zealand All Blacks. In the 2002/03 seasons, two ex-Super 12 players represented Valley at Club level, raising the levels of enthusiasm, experience and talent throughout the Club. Valley continues to be the forerunner of Hong Kong rugby, operating the most professional teams and raising the bar for all clubs. In 2002 Valley RFC re-established some old links with Stanley Fort so that it could build a better framework to cater for more youth sides and to help provide young rugby players with a seamless path from junior to senior rugby. In 2004, to enhance the affiliation with Valley RFC, Stanley Fort changed its name to Valley Fort RFC and now plays in black and red (following the senior team strip). Valley Fort is one of the larger mini-rugby clubs in Hong Kong and has over 380 registered players in its mini and colt sections. The club runs a number of teams at all age groups from Under 5's to Under 18s. Valley RugbyValley Ladies (The Pink Ladies) was formed in 1996 as part of the development of women’s rugby in Hong Kong. Ladies rugby in Hong Kong has evolved over the years from 7’s rugby, 10-a-side rugby to the first season of 15’s rugby being played in 2002-2003. At the time Valley couldn’t field a women’s 15’s side, however they did continue in the ladies 7’s league. They are supported by the same coaches and levels of expertise available to the men’s section. Off the field and off-season they are as active with touch and tag rugby and Dragon Boating where this year The Pink Ladies Dragon Boating squad won the plate winners narrowly beating the Hockey section Avalon Maidens.
