Beaconsfield Rugby Football Club was founded in 1952 by Jack Hickman, a rugby enthusiast and a leading light at Ealing RFC. In view of the distance he had to travel to support Ealing, he decided to form a new local club and an advert was placed in the Bucks Free Press. Within a week, 3 playing members had joined. Persisting through local contacts and adverts at the Railway Station and the Chiltern Cinema, a full side was slowly put together. Eventually the first match was played on October 3rd 1953 against Windsor Ex 'A'.
