Modern Club
Blackheath FC's first team currently plays in National Division 1 in England, but the club fields many sides.
The ever popular Mini and Junior sections now have their own home ground, based at Kidbrooke Road, Well Hall, London, SE9.
The club provides sections ranging from Under-6's right through to Under-18's, and has experienced success at all levels.
The Mini Section successfully ran its first ever Mini Rugby Festival at Eltham College on 25 November 2007.
Graduates of the club's junior section include several county players, and Frankie Neale who plays for the first team as well as England academy. The club at Under-18 level works in conjunction with London Leisure College to make sure that players with academic commitments do not get tempted away from the game.

“The modern artist must live by craft and violence. His gods are violent gods.... Those artists, so called, whose work does not show this strife, are uninteresting.”

“I spoke at a woman’s club in Philadelphia yesterday and a young lady said to me afterwards, “Well, that sounds very nice, but don’t you think it is better to be the power behind the throne?” I answered that I had not had much experience with thrones, but a woman who has been on a throne, and who is now behind it, seems to prefer to be on the throne.”
—Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
