It all began in 1968 in the 17th arrondissement of Paris where a group of friends, surfing on the general atmosphere, decided to adopt the slogan "Under the cobblestones, a rugby pitch" and created the RCP 17. Meanwhile, in the 15th arrondissement, two friends decided to create, in 1971, the rugby section within the Omnisport Paris 15. Soon, in addition to the senior team, the rugby school was created, as well as a junior team. Then came the month of July 1990 when, during long evenings of passionate exchanges, several of them, including Michel Huguet of RCP 17 and Jean-Luc Mauger of OP 15, noticed that the strengths of the two clubs were complementary. Administratively linked to the Omnisport Paris 15, OP15/RCP17 therefore moved to the Suzanne Lenglen stadium in the 15th arrondissement. 1996 was a difficult year for the Omnisport institution. In order not to be affected by these setbacks, the rugby section decided to create an independent club. Master of its destiny, the Rugby Club Paris 15 was born.
Since 1996, RCP 15 has been attracting new athletes, children and adults, men and women, beginners and experienced. Thanks to the efforts of everyone, players, volunteers and friends, this small family club is one of the largest rugby clubs in the Île-de-France region. A club that counts and that is recognised by its sporting results as much as by the number of its members; a training club, with rugby schools, and also one of the French clubs most involved in the promotion of women's rugby. Affiliated to the French Rugby Federation, it is also affiliated to the Aveyronnais Federation.
