Newbridge RFC was formed after the amalgamation of neighbouring clubs, Curragh RFC and Old Kilcullen RFC, in June 1996. Both clubs had seen their membership diminish and so a new future was born. Newbridge has now seen a major influx of under-age players (male and female) and the success of their senior adult players together with the renovation and addition to the clubhouse have brought a whole new transition of this rugby club. A friendly and outgoing club is there to be enjoyed.
