The Elk Valley Rugby Football Club was established in 2013 in Fernie, BC by a group of people with a shared passion for the beautiful game that is rugby. Since then, the club has grown to include a senior men’s team, a senior women’s team and a rookie rugby program. The club and all its members stand by the core values of rugby: Integrity, Passion, Discipline and Respect, add a healthy dose of fun and friendship and you have the Elk Valley RFC. We are a welcoming place for anyone who shares these values and is looking for friendship, team spirit, support, and a good excuse to run around. We nurture a careful balance between playing hard on the pitch and socializing hard off the pitch. Come and join our rugby family as a player, a supporter, a social member, a coach, a referee or just out of curiosity. You are welcome!

Pre-season training for our Men and Women’s teams usually begins Mid-April, with the regular season kicking off in May. Trainings are currently on Tuesdays & Thursday’s at 6:30pm.
Matches are played on Saturdays afternoons, with some tour games also played on Sundays.

Get Involved
Join a motley crew of ski bums and miners who get together to play social rugby. Highlights of our season include trips to Missoula, Montana for an international rugby competition, exhibition games in Nelson, and competing for the Saratoga Cup in Vernon (well, sometimes).
Besides that; numerous socials, BBQ’s, charity events, Six-Nations marathons, and getting one over on Cranbrook.
