Abbey Rugby Club, Reading

Abbey Rugby club is situated just a 10/15 minute journey from the centre of Reading, lots of space for activities and a large clubhouse which can be utilised for the catering of events.

History – Reading Abbey was born in the early 1950s as a youth side meeting the playing demand of boys who went to non-rugby playing schools. As a consequence when they wanted adult rugby they were uncomfortable with the established hierarchy at the two clubs in town. So in 1956 they formed Abbey RFC and played in the Town’s public park moving from pub to pub for changing and post match refreshments.

By 1971 life had become more heterogeneous and the club scraped together the wherewithal to buy 22 acres of ground and by their own efforts three pitches and a clubhouse were built. With all the energy released by the change of venue and an ever growing membership, it rapidly established itself as a leading club in the area for adult and youth rugby, three of whom have represented England at various youth levels.

Hi5 have been running Corporate teambuilding events at the venue since 2019, popular activities include Segways, Air rifle scrabble , challenge me games, archery, axe throwing and a host of team challenges.
