Hull RUFC is a rugby union club based in Hull in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England and currently plays in National Division 3 North. They are currently based at Hull YPI having relocated there for the 2009–2010 season.
The club was formed in 1992 as a result of two clubs - Old Hymerians RUFC and Hull & East Riding RUFC (1989). The club has progressed up the rugby union pyramid, beginning life in the old North East 2, and won promotion to National League 2 North in 2009. The club initially played at the Old Hymerians ground at Haworth Park (capacity 1,200) until the 2008-09 season when they moved to their current home - the Ferens Ground located at Chanterlands Avenue. In 2009 a women's team was founded at the club and the women and girls section is continuously growing.
