Submission declined on 17 December 2024 by DoubleGrazing (talk).

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.
Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.

Littlemore Rugby Football Club

Littlemore Rugby Football club is an RFU accredited club, based in the southeast of Oxford offering adult men’s and junior rugby from 5 to 50 years old.^[1]

History

Littlemore Rugby Football Club was formed in the summer of 1976 – the major driving force being Mr Lynn Evans, the Head of PE at Peers School who coached the club up until the late 1980’s when he moved on to take charge at Chinnor RFC. A major feat in the club’s history was the building of the Clubhouse on the grounds of Peers School in 1985, prior to this the players and supporters would adjourn to the The George Public House in the village for their post match festivities hosted by Jim and Barbara Adams.

Founding members, father and son – Kevin & Noel Heffernan, along with Cameron Wilson were the key movers behind the building of the clubhouse – which is unique in England as the first licensed premises on school grounds in the UK.^[2] A testament to their hard work is the fact that the clubhouse still stands proudly in the same place today, despite Peers School now being taken over by a private consortium and re-named the Oxford Academy.^[3]
