The Rugby Club was formed in 1875 after a meeting was held in Mr Pine's rooms on 25 October.
The Captain of the Boat Club took the chair at the first meeting and was elected to the Presidency of the new club. Mr Whitehead was chosen as the first captain.
The first rugby match was played on the Corpus ground on 29 October and ended in a draw in favour of Corpus by 5 tries to nothing. The next game against Clare was played on Parker's Piece (the scene of University rugby matches until the municipal authorities objected tot he damage done). The result was a draw in favour of Magdalene by one try and a touchdown to nothing. The final game of the first season was against a joint team from St Peter's and St Catherine's and the score was Magdalene 5 touchdowns, Combined Colleges 3 tries and 2 touchdowns. Under the old rules no match could be won unless a goal was kicked. New rules came into force in November.
The game was then very different to the modern game with most international and club sides having 13 forwards and 7 outsides.

A substantial collection of correspondence, books and memorabilia, photographs, slides and audio-visual materials, drafts for books, lectures and poems, bequeathed to the College; together with the diaries of Dorothea Richards, which run from 1912 to 1986. The main archival collection is in 62 boxes and 50 notebooks. There is also a notable collection of Chinese scrolls, for which a special scrolarium table was constructed after the bequest came to the Old Library . Although many books and papers were removed and destroyed, or lost in flooding, during the lifetime of the donors, what remains gives a comprehensive representation.

Rapport
Au Comité de Salut Public
Le Citoyen Henrion Directeur général des transports militaires de l’armée de Sambre et Meuse, nous fait connaitre le trait de Bravoure du C[itoye]n Pomme Charretier de la division Hautenot, qui n’a pas craint de s’exposer à une mort presque certaine en bravant le feu de l’ennemi pour sauver à la republique la perte de deux chevaux qui s’etaient échappé et avaient été sous les palissades entre la porte de la ville et le fort st jean.
Le trait de Bravoure du cit[oy]en Pomme ne doit pas rester sans récompense : mais comme la capacité et les connaissances de ce citoyen ne répondent pas à son généreux dévouement à l’intérêt de la république, il est impossible de l’élever a un grade supérieur, on ne peut que le reconnaitre par une simple gratification.
Le comité est prié de fixer la récompense que mérite le citoyen Pomme."
