The Club was formed so long ago that details are beyond living memory. Rumour has it that the Club was formed by missionaries to foster Western-Korean goodwill. However a number of on-field incidents put an end to that.

Some diplomats then got into the picture and the objective was changed to facilitate the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons on The Peninsula and to enhance an airy-fairy concept called Reunification.This proved too difficult for the members to grasp, let alone tackle, and
today the Club seeks only to find grass pitches and well lubricated after match functions.

The Club has always had strong leadership, first from the Great Captain, and his successor, the Dear Captain, and now the third generation bastard son, Captain Ted ‘The Dictator’ Gray. Recently in a coup attempt a new concept in leadership loosely dubbed ‘the Six Party Talks’ was tried however this has proved impractical because everyone thought they had the right to suggest things - which just doesn’t work.

Once again we now rely solely on the on-the-spot guidance of the Dictator which pleases the masses because a) he will always provide for us and b) we don’t have to think for ourselves.

The successful 2005 out-maneuvering of the Beijing Devils and the Shanghai Hairy Crabs to bring home the inaugural Yellow Sea Cup (As Seen On TV) has only further enhanced his cult-like status with his adoring followers.

The Club’s motto is “Maybe Next Weekend”. This is the club’s prediction on when the DPRK 1st XV captain The Dear Leader (not very original) may “drop the big one” on us. Should this happen rugby practice may have to be rescheduled until maybe the next weekend after that.
