The Sydney Convicts are Australia’s first gay Rugby Union club and current title holders of the Bingham Cup, the World Cup of gay Rugby. Founded in 2004, the Convicts are a group committed to building a competitive, social and diverse club which welcomes players from all levels of playing experience.
The Convicts, under the umbrella of Woollahra Colleagues RFC, compete in the Sydney Suburban Rugby Union championship and have proved their ability to hold their own in mainstream competition by winning the Halligan Cup, undefeated, in 2005.
The Convicts I team, successfully defended their World Championship title at the Bingham Cup, the Gay Rugby World Cup, held last June in Dublin, Ireland.
