History

Kenilworth Rugby Club was formed in 1924. The 2000s saw the club progress up the league pyramid in recent years and reached level 5 and played in National League 3 Midlands until two consecutive relegations saw the club drop back to the seventh level, before promotion in 2012–13 back to level 6. After promotion in 2021-22 the Men's 1st XV reached level 5 again and play in Regional 1 Midlands in season 23-24. Kenilworth RFC have a very successful Women's section which was formed in 2015. After a number of promotions they now play in the 2nd tier of league rugby [2]
