Ardee RFC is an Irish rugby union team based in Ardee, County Louth, Ireland. They play in Division 3 of the Leinster League, [1] organised by the Leinster Branch of the IRFU. The club colours are navy and white.

History

Ardee RFC was founded in 1980 after a meeting of 22 people from Ardee Golf Club, they wanted to provide a rugby club for youths and juveniles in the mid-Louth area. The first adult match was played on St. Stephen's Day and against Athboy RFC, Ardee RFC officially began competing in the 1983/84 season. [2]

In the 1988/89 season, the club purchased land at Townspark and it has been the club grounds of Ardee RFC since. [2]
