Strabane Rugby Football Club
For a century, Strabane Rugby Club has been a pillar of sporting excellence in its community. Through the highs and lows, they have passionately embraced the spirit of rugby. Now, as they celebrate a remarkable 100-year journey, they stand on the threshold of an exciting new chapter.
One thing that's eluded the club over these years is a permanent home. A dedicated home ground isn't just about a patch of grass; it's about nurturing the future of rugby.
Together, they can bring a current derelict site back into community use, and ensure that Strabane Rugby Club's legacy endures for generations to come.
