Welcome to the official site of the Box Hill Unquenchables rugby team. Please have a look around our site and get to know a bit more about the Unquenchables. The Unquenchables are the veterans team of the Box Hill Rugby Union Football Club based in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia where we play in a masters’ grade competition of 8 teams.

We get together every Thursday night throughout the year for an optional game of touch under lights at our club, the Box Hill RUFC. We realize that work commitments can prevent players from appearing every week, however we have a core of players who make these sessions worthwhile.

We’re a very social club with active members in all grades (two senior grade teams, women and veterans) who enjoy playing and socializing. We also have a very active and successful junior club. New members to the Unquenchables are very welcome. If you are over 35, or feel over 35, and are interested in simply playing touch on a Thursday night or want to play veterans’ rugby, please contact us or simply turn up at the Box Hill club. You can be assured of a warm welcome.

The Unquenchables also tour overseas each year. We have been regular participants at the Bangkok Veterans Competition and more recently at the Angkor Old Boys Rugby Tournament in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. We also have a solid core of Unquenchables who attend the Golden Oldies World Festival wherever it is held in the world.

Why not drop into Box Hill RUFC and meet the Unquenchables.

If you would like to find out more about playing grade rugby for Box Hill RUFC, home of the Broncos, then please visit the Box Hill Rugby Union Football website.

We do not stop playing because we grow old;    We grow old because we stop playing.    Never be the first to get old!
