History
Wanderers FC is Ireland’s second oldest rugby club having been founded in 1870 by some former members of Dublin University FC.
Wanderers was one of the founding members of the Irish Rugby Football Union (IRFU), hence the title Wanderers FC and not Wanderers RFC.
The club is deeply proud of its contribution to Rugby Football having provided 87 Irish International Players, 5 Irish captains and one captain each of England and Australia in addition to 14 British and Irish Lions and one Lions Captain.
The club has clubhouses at its playing grounds at Lansdowne Road (Aviva Stadium) and Merrion Road.
