On club training and on field equipment is aging and in need of replacement, our club was hit hard during and after covid. In 2025, we have seen a growth in membership with the club fielding two senior sides for the first time since 2020.

Our club, which was formed in 1972, has since provided teams in the Junior, Senior and Masters rugby competitions.  The club was born after local rugby enthusiasts met, responding to a message in the Public Notices of the local newspaper.  The club’s first name was “Skye Frankston” and was allocated a playing field off Frankston-Dandenong Road in Lyndhurst.  Over the years we have changed our name and relocated our club a number of times, finally settling into our current grounds at Riviera Reserve, Eel Race Road, Seaford.

Today we proudly call ourselves “Southern Districts Rugby Club” which is a reflection of the Peninsula and surrounding areas in which our players and members reside.  Although our designs have changed over the years we proudly wear our original colours of blue and gold.  This heritage dates back to the first set of club jerseys, an old set of Parramatta jerseys which were the only ones available at the time. 

Our grounds boast some of the best club rugby facilities in Victoria.  We have two well maintained playing fields and two training fields which support all our junior and senior teams, dedicated and knowledgeable coaching and support staff, our club house which provides canteen and bar facilities, thus to ensure our members and visitors feel welcome and entertained.
