Founded in July 2003, we are proud to be the first independent rugby club in Cyprus, committed to promoting and growing the game of rugby across the island.
Based in Paphos, our amateur club was formed by a group of South Africans, each bringing with them a deep passion and diverse rugby experience from across South Africa. Today, we’re home to more than 30 active players, and we’re always welcoming new talent, returning players eager to coach, and sponsors who share our love for the sport.
Our mission is to expand rugby’s reach – introducing the game to both seasoned players and complete newcomers. Whether on the pitch or in the community, we aim to create opportunities for people to engage with rugby, learn its values, and be part of a growing and supportive rugby family.
We’re proud of our milestones, including being crowned 2021 Cyprus Rugby Championship Winners, and making history in 2025 with the launch of Paphos’ first ever Women’s Touch Rugby team.
Cyprus Rugby is on the rise, and we invite everyone – players, coaches, fans, and supporters – to be part of this exciting journey. If you love rugby or are curious to learn more, there’s a place for you with us.
