150 years of Heidelberger Ruderklub

The oldest Rugby club in Germany, and one of the oldest in Europe too, had been founded in 1872 . . . one year after the foundation of Rugby Football Union.

On that occasion HRK rugby players organized a Club celebration that ended with the big Anniversary Ball at the historical Town Castle.

European Veteran Rugby Association “joined” the celebration making the special EVRA plaque (150 years of HRK Rugby) that had been presented to HRK Veterans (see photo) by our Financial audit Wolfgang Mund, who is also “HRK Veterans public relation” manager . . .

Recently HRK Rugby Oldies visited Split (Croatia) being hosted by RFC “Nada” Veterans that celebrated their 60th anniversary . . . EVRA reported last month
