Message from the President
The Yeomen Rugby Football Club began in 1972 when a group of York
University students decided to expand their rugby opportunities in the
Rugby Ontario league. Our club has experienced tremendous growth and
success over the years offering rugby experiences to high school,
college, university, and senior men. The mandate of the Executive is to
continue to develop and offer that love for the game in a positive and
enjoyable playing environment. The club has also diversified it's
membership by attracting players from a wide variety of backgrounds.
Through travel and our website we are hoping to reach parts of the
globe never before dreamed possible to spread the good news of the
Yeomen RFC.
Our success is based on the support of our volunteers. As a
not-for-profit organization we rely on sponsors, sponsorships,
fundraising and the generosity of individuals to financially support
our programs. The efforts of these individuals giving countless hours
of energy and time collectively helps build a strong organization that
in turn raises better citizens.
The mission of the Yeomen RFC is to nurture the complete player and
develop a well-rounded citizen who will contribute positively within
society. We expect them to be ambassadors for the game and as such we
expect all players to:
