Westcliff Rugby Football Club is an English rugby union team based in Eastwood, a suburb of Southend-on-Sea in Essex. The club was formed in 1922 as Old Westcliffians Rugby Football Club, for ex-pupils of Westcliff High School and took the current name of Westcliff Rugby Club in the 1990s. They run four senior teams and the full range of junior teams.[1] The men's 1st XV currently play in Regional 1 South East, level 5 of the English rugby pyramid, having experienced successive relegations from National League 2 East (2022–23) and Regional 1 South East (2023–24) and promotion from Regional 2 Anglia in 2024–25.
