Collegians Club | 381 Boshoff St, Scottsville, Pietermaritzburg 3209,

Collegians Rugby Club which was initially the Old Collegians Rugby Club became an Open club in 1938 What will perhaps interest most people is what motivated the initial move and how a Rugby Club with only 67 members went about achieving its goal After the Second World War the Collegians rugby players having no home of their own did their training on the Old Bulwer Street grounds Facilities existing were very poor Early in 1949 the thought of obtaining their own premises was first conceived but as the Rugby Club was only just solvent this could at that stage not be anything more than a pipe dream However some bright individual hit upon the idea of hiring the Members Pavilion of the Royal Agricultural Society in between the Annual Shows Negotiations commenced right away and after it found that the proposition was an economically feasible one a meeting of the Club members was held in a room in Hesom Street with the object of forming a sporting club to be known as the Collegians Club
