Burton Rugby Club is an English rugby union team based in Burton upon Trent in Staffordshire. The club operates six senior teams, including an under-22s team, academy sides and a full range of junior teams. The first XV currently plays in Midlands 1 West following relegation from National 3 Midlands the previous season. The club gained promotion back to National 3 Midlands after winning a play-off against Derby RUFC 24-20 at the end of the 2013-14 Season.
Burton Rugby Club was formed on 5 October 1870 as Burton Football Club, retaining that name until the word 'rugby' was added in 2001. The club has played at its current home, Peel Croft, since 1910.
