Ft Bragg Rugby Football Club
The club was founded in the spring of 1972. In that year a bunch of guys who had experienced rugby in their universities got together and decided to attempt to form a team. The core membership of the founders were officers who had graduated West Point. Others came from Norwich University and several other New England schools where they had learned the sport. Unfortunately, the gathering of players happened too late to get a true schedule going but we participated in a round robin event with various colleges in a Raleigh Park hosted by the NC State Rugby Club. Fortunately, all had a great time and it was decided to publicize the next attempt in the Ft Bragg newspaper to find prospects and to really get the team going. In the late summer of 1972 the Ft Bragg Rugby Club took off in earnest.
In 1990 the club experienced some reputation difficulties, both with base and with the North Carolina Union. The team took part in the 1990 Military Championships under the name of the Fayetteville Old Gray RFC. The "All Americans" folded that spring, hoping the bad press subsided, with the team to reconstitute in the fall of 1990 as the Ft Bragg Old Gray.
