The club was founded in 1922 as an offshoot of the Mens Own Fellowship attached to Doddrige Chapel in Northampton.
The Club played for many years at Dallington Park in Northampton, being housed in a number of clubhouses in Northampton which were either compulsorily purchased from us or from which we were given notice to quit! In 1980 the club was able to purchase the Lord Alexander of Tunis sports ground at Ashton and converted the ten acres into a three pitch rugby club; in the process extending the changing rooms and associated facilities to cope with the needs of the players.
In recent years the Club has been reasonably successful in winning the Alliance Cup in 1994, 1995 and 2003 also being in the final in 1987, 1988, 1992, 1998, 2000 and 2006.
With the introduction of leagues to Junior Rugby, we were the Courage League East Midlands II Champions in 1998, came second in the Courage League East Midlands I in 1990, and after some changes to the league structure we merged with Leicestershire and were East Midlands Leicester Division One Champions in 1996.
After more league changes we found ourselves in Midlands East Division Two and were crowned Midlands East Two Champions in 1997.
Other trophies include the Northampton Alliance Paget Cup 1988, Alliance Sevens Champions 1996 and Michael Whyte Cup Winners in 1994. The club has also won the East Midlands Referees Society Gordon Bell Trophy in 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000 and 2003. This is awarded to the best-organised and most hospitable Club, in their view, in the East Midlands.
