Millwall Rugby Club is an English amateur rugby union team. The men's first team was born from Millwall Albion RUFC who were formed in 1995 on the Isle of Dogs. Also known as Millwall RFC or Millwall RUFC.
Millwall currently usually play their home games at Millwall Park or on Victoria Park (also known as Fortress Vicky), which is located in Bow. There is a First XV and also a 2nd men's XV called the "Llamas", a 3rd men's XV unofficially dubbed the "Pumas" and since 2009 a 4th XV has also been entered in the Essex BL Merit Table. Hackney Marshes is also used on the rare occasions that 3 or more teams are playing at home on the same day. As well as adult men's rugby, there is a women's team called Venus and a very successful youth section called the Millwall Lions.

Famous quotes containing the word club:
“He loved to sit silent in a corner of his club and listen to the loud chattering of politicians, and to think how they all were in his power—how he could smite the loudest of them, were it worth his while to raise his pen for such a purpose.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
