Hellfire Awaits

150 Years of Redruth Rugby Club

Hellfire Awaits: 150 Years of Redruth RFC is a tale of mud and blood and frequent outbreaks of violence. Cornish rugby developed an uncompromising style of its own fuelled by traditional and often bitter local rivalries. It became Cornwall’s champion club, carving out a reputation across and far beyond Cornwall.

Hellfire Awaits: 150 Years of Redruth RFC is a tale of mud and blood and frequent outbreaks of violence. It’s the story of a rugby club founded in a tough and grimy mining town where the game provided a welcome outlet from the trials and tribulations of daily life for both players and spectators.

In the early years the club fought for survival as the mining industry collapsed and young men went abroad in their thousands to find work. But it went on to become Cornwall’s champion club, carving out a reputation for itself across the game of rugby as a whole. It has produced six England internationals and four Lions.

Over the years the club has played some of the biggest names in English and Welsh rugby and hosted a number of international sides, including South Africa, Japan, New Zealand and Tonga. Situated in an area that is one of the poorest in the country, it has overcome the disadvantages of geography and limited finances to find success in the professional era.
