York Rugby Union Team remains undefeated amid 130th anniversary milestone

Ryan Roodt, Chairman of Nestle Rowntree RUFC commented: “I’m extremely proud of what the players and coaching team has accomplished, to remain undefeated out of 12 games is a phenomenal achievement and it is testament to their hard work and commitment. I’d also like to thank our legacy players that continue to support the club and remind us of our heritage. A lot of what happens in the background that goes unseen has enabled our beloved club to continue as we celebrate our 130th anniversary milestone.
Nestle Rowntree RUFC has also secured itself a spot in next year’s Yorkshire Vase, a final it hopes will result in a win after losing out at this year’s final to Thorne.

Hide AdRoodt continues: “Rugby is going through a challenging time and I believe that if we sit back and rest on our laurels it will get forgotten about. For it to survive and compete against the various other sports people have access to we need to challenge it and approach it a different way. However, for our club in particular, a core value is that whatever we do and how we do it the players enjoy themselves whilst doing it.”


As part of its plans to move the club forward, Nestle Rowntree RUFC will be making a major announcement in January 2025.
