A Brief History of Edinburgh Rugby

The history of the Edinburgh Rugby is as well travelled and varied as the history of professional rugby in Scotland. Though the team itself was formed back in 1872, professional rugby as an organised sport only goes back to 1995 when the Scottish Rugby Union created a domestic league out of the existing district teams. Edinburgh district became Edinburgh Rugby and participated in its first Heineken Cup in 1996. The team then became the Edinburgh Reivers before reverting back to its old name in 2003. Edinburgh Rugby is joined by Scarlets Rugby Union, Munster Rugby and Zebre Rugby as participants in the Guinness Pro 14 league. After a brief stint in private ownership, the team re-joined the Scottish Rugby Union and with a new man at the helm, they placed second in the league after the 2007 season, the highlight of which was a record attendance at home to watch a game versus arch-rival Glasgow Warriors. Be there to witness an edition of this rivalry for yourself. Edinburgh Rugby tickets are available now to buy or sell via StubHub.

Enjoy a rugby evening at Murrayfield Stadium

Edinburgh Rugby has had its best success in recent years even though its domestic record has seen them mired consistently in the middle of the pack. Starting with the 2014 season, the team romped its way to the finals of the Rugby Challenge Cup before losing a close 13-19 tie versus Gloucester. This was followed by a quarter-final showing in the post season for the two seasons to follow. Such a consistent run, especially in the playoffs, gives Union fans much to cheer about and keeps their hopes alive for the team's first cup title. The club has been keen to capitalise on its form of late and a proposal has been made to erect a new stadium near Murrayfield at a cost of about EUR 6 million. There is still plenty of time to catch the team in its present stomping ground where legends like Allan Jacobsen (most capped player) and Chris Paterson (most points scored) once roamed the pitch. Here you'll find Coach Richard Cockerill on the side-lines leading his team on another championship quest. Show your team spirit and encourage them to new heights.
