Portlaoise RFC was founded in 1966 and now stands over 50 years in existence. From humble beginnings, the club is now located in Togher with excellent facilities that would have only been a pipe dream over 50 years ago. They can look back proudly and take huge credit at the progress they have made since their inception.
After Rathdowney Rugby club ceased in the early 50s, the County of Laois was without a club and this prompted a meeting of Portlaoise rugby supporters. After a meeting in 1966, the club was formed and they began life opposite the County hospital before land was purchased on the Mountmellick road in 1969.
