Chinnor Rugby Football Club is a rugby union club founded in Thame, Oxfordshire, England in 1963. They are currently playing in the National Division Three South.
History
Chinnor gained promotion to the National Leagues in 2006 and became the youngest club ever to do so. The club regularly runs 5 senior teams as well as a full youth setup from age 5 upwards. Chinnor's youth setup is widely thought of as one of the best in the country having produced top Premiership players such as Tom Varndell (Leicester Tigers), Dave Seymour (Saracens) and Paul Volley (Harlequins). Chinnor has recently established a U19 rugby academy, the first of its kind in Oxfordshire or Buckinghamshire. The academy plays its matches against top flight English club sides and Universities.
