Old Isleworthians RFC are an amateur rugby club based in Isleworth, London. The Old Isleworthians came into existence in 1902 with the formation of the OI's Association Football Club (OIAFC). There was also an OI's Association social club, known in those days as a "smoking club". Both these came together in 1953 as the OI's Sports and Social Club (later known as the Association). The rugby club (OIRFC) had its inaugrual game in 1957 against Old Gaytonians, now Harrow High School. The first chairman's, Cyril Smith's, enthusiasm and drive got the rugby club started. By 1959, the club had formed a 2nd XV and by the mid 60s an Extra A (3rd) XV was started.
The rugby club currently has three active sides, with the 1st XV competing in Herts/Middlesex 2.
