Club History

Introduction

Welcome to the website of the world famous Balmoral Hellfish Rugby Club, which is first and foremost a group of mates who met through rugby, arguably the greatest game of all.

History

The Balmoral Hellfish Rugby Club was founded on November 1st 2006, by a group of intrepid, rugby explorers, who had returned victorious from a recent overseas rugby tour. Based on their touring experiences with their parent club, these daring individuals decided it was time to start their own, touring, Rugby Club.

Our Aim

“The Balmoral Hellfish Rugby Club was formed, so that club members have an organisation to tour with and compete, in various overseas sporting competitions and tournaments, the main focus’ being rugby and fun”.
For the Hellfish, it’s about getting away and enjoying the lifestyle which rugby brings. This however is not the only aim of the club, as it is hoped membership will translate into job opportunities, business deals and more importantly friendships and mates, which will last a lifetime.

The club aims to get away to a domestic function and an overseas trip per year which will more often than not, include some sort of “rugby” based tournament.

Membership

The membership process at the Hellfish is by invitation only and all members must be nominated and seconded by two current, financial, club members. This membership process is outlined in the club constitution, but once membership has been accepted by the committee, this entitles you to partake in all the activities the Balmoral Hellfish are promoting, attending or partaking in.
Club contact details and administration forms can all be found on the club’s website www.hellfishrugby.com or committee can be contacted at committee@hellfishrugby.com

Conclusion

At best, we are a rugby club built around mateship and pride, loyalty and adventure. We are a highly functional club, promoting strong values and good times. Ultimately, we are about enjoying ourselves, enjoying our rugby and seeing the world. We endeavor to associate ourselves with other likeminded clubs throughout our travels and support associations where we can.
