Glasgow HSFP are a former rugby union team that played their home games at Glasgow, Scotland.
The team was founded in 1884 by former pupils of the High School of Glasgow. The team no longer exists.
In 1982 it merged with the Kelvinside Academicals - the rugby team of another school; the Kelvinside Academy - to form a rugby club called Glasgow High Kelvinside.
In 1997, Glasgow High Kelvinside merged with Glasgow Academicals to form Glasgow Hawks. Both GHK and Academicals survived the merger as spin-offs from the Hawks.
Originally, West of Scotland Football Club (known often as 'West') was also invited into the merger, but declined and continue to play at their club in Milngavie.
