Championing Wellington Rugby since 1870

Formed in 1870, the Wellington Football Club, "The Axemen" is the oldest continuously playing rugby club in New Zealand - 22 years older than the New Zealand Rugby Union. Our teams' black and gold livery was the inspiration for Wellington's signatory colours of black and yellow.

The Wellington Football Club have senior teams in the Premiers and one of the largest junior clubs in the region. Pre season games and training for seniors begins the week after Wellington Anniversary weekend. Juniors begin in March.
