Hull rugby teams are among the most famous in the sport. This page lists all 7 clubs in the city that we hold, from professional rugby league to amateur and rugby union sides. In addition, each club links to its own full profile.

The city is split by the River Hull. Traditionally, Hull FC represents the west of the city, while Hull Kingston Rovers represents the east. As a result, the Hull derby is one of the fiercest rivalries in rugby league.
