The Roses Rugby Football Club, (Roses RFC), is a rugby union team based in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The club competes in, and is governed by, the Eastern Pennsylvania Rugby Union, the Mid Atlantic Rugby Football Union, and USA Rugby.

Even though the Roses RFC plays in the city of Lancaster, the team formally extends its player membership and marketing to the nearby city of York. The team plays most of its home matches at the Planet Fitness in Lancaster, though some are played at J. P. McCaskey High School in Lancaster city and at the York College of Pennsylvania.

History

*In 2005, the Roses won their first MARFU Division II championship.
*In 2007, the Roses fell to Norfolk Blues in the MARFU Division II semi finals game.

Recruiting

Roses RFC has established relationships with high school and collegiate teams in the South Central Pennsylvania region , which have become feeder teams for the Roses. This allows the Roses to maintain a large player pool of young athletes. The team operates the Warwick Swarm, the York Roses, and the Hempfield Knightmares in the youth leagues and the York & Lancaster Thorns for women. The Roses RFC also has a relationship with the Athletic Department of the Millersville University of Pennsylvania.
