The club had a tough start, as World War II was still pretty much in full force. People were living in fear for the Gestapo or being sent to work in Germany. Initially, they played only friendly matches, including a match against an Anglo-American forces side in 1946.
1952 saw the temporary cessation of rugby activity, owing to the lack of skilled players and competent officials, problems with th
e playing field and financial struggles. In 1956 the club restarted again, with more focus on developing home-grown players, and with Josef Kohout still a major driving force behind the club. In sixties RC Říčany are collecting first trophies in youth categories. The development of children and youth was and always remains the major target of the club. After the Velvet revolution the club rose to prominence and won the first men Champions title in 1996. Next titles came in 2001, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2011, 2012 and 2021 making RC Říčany one of the most successfull clubs in Czech republic. The club celebrated their 75th anniversary in 2019.
