Edinburgh University Medics RFC

Lighting up Tennent’s East Region Leagues since 1978 Whilst EUMRFC is first and foremost a rugby club, it also has a strong social side.

Re-established in 1978 EUMRFC has since established itself as one of the top medical school rugby clubs in the United Kingdom. Playing in the distinctive medical school colours of red, yellow and maroon (supposedly to represent blood, pus and liver) the men of EUMRFC pride themselves on their brand of free flowing and expressive rugby. With over 50 current members and an extensive list of alumni, including current Scotland International Geoff Cross, the club is the largest medic's sports club in the university. Achievements include being current champions of the Scottish and Northern Ireland Medical Schools' Sports Rugby Tournament as well as being undefeated in Europe. The club contains a wide range of individuals, with current members ranging from those who had never played before at the start of university (including some that still don't) to current age grade Scottish internationals. The club has regular socials as well as larger events such as 'bingo night', freshers takeover week, the joint netball and rugby social and, most importantly, the annual tour.

A big thanks to Alice from CERT and Strutsafe who we hosted on Monday evening for a really interesting talk. A number of important topics were discussed including safe s*x, consent, r**e culture, s*xual assault and spikings.

It was really helpful for us to improve our awareness and understanding of such important and potentially harmful social issues. Everyone has a responsibility to educate themselves and in turn help put an end to s*xual assault.

We encourage every society and sports club to organise these highly informative talks, as I think we all learned something new! And please support CERT and Strutsafe as they are two great charities that are making a huge impact.

EUMRFC Statement

At Medic’s Rugby, we fully support the GirlsNightIn movement, and encourage everyone in Edinburgh to boycott clubs on Thursday 28th October. This is to demonstrate that spikings are completely unacceptable, and force venues to recognise that they need to take action to increase the safety of individuals in nightclubs, in light of recent events.

Please take a look at and follow the pages below on Instagram to show your support, spread awareness and educate others as well as yourselves! There is also a petition so that wider changes can hopefully be made to increase safety in nightclubs, through more thorough searches on entry. Attached are some useful help pages from Crew on spiking safety.

We hope everyone stays safe and takes care of each other!

March Report : EUMRFC v Edinburgh Northern RFC 04/09/2021

An excellent, competitive game to kick off the season. It was, however, an unfortunate loss with a score of 27-17 to Edinburgh Northern.

Points on the board came from two excellent tries from David Bourne and a smashing try from James Harper, with Jack Baker scoring a conversion.

MOTM: Adam Fidler
DOTD: Morgan Bruce

It was a superb effort with some hard tackles from everyone on the pitch, giving us a positive outlook for the season ahead. Thanks again to Edinburgh Northern RFC for a great game to start the season.
