The club was founded in the fall of 1969 by several local athletes with rugby experience and players from the Brown University Rugby Team. The women's side started in 2004. The men's team first official season was the spring of 1971. The club was recognized by NERFU after an organizational meeting by five of the founders – Mike Diffley, Jay Fluck, Bob Hoder, Bill Mullin and Hal Wilder. In it’s first season P.R.F.C. posted an 11-4 record, including a second Guinness Championship. Since then, the club has won the annual NERFU championship twice, 1975 and 1990, two championships at Saranac Lake, 1976 and 1977, plus several successful tours to England and Scotland in 1976, Ireland in 1979, and to England, Scotland and Ireland in 1987. In more recent history, the Providence Rugby Club has continued to build upon the winning ways of the club’s founders. Providence continues to field highly competitive and successful summer 7’s teams. The team has used the summer to foster strong relationships with returning local college players and as a stepping stone to successful conference play in the fall season. PRFC is proudly sponsored by 'Gansett Beer.
