History

The original Ipswich Rangers Rugby Club was formed in July 1886,[3] and played a Combined Brisbane team a month later.[4] In 1887 the Rangers won the Hardgrave Challenge Cup for the premiership of the Colony of Queensland, defeating the Wanderers club of Brisbane in the deciding match by 5 points to 2.[5] The Ipswich Rangers also played the first touring British rugby team in 1888.[6][7] But by 1891 the club was not able to regularly field a team and began to forfeit matches.[8][9] Other rugby sides were then formed in Ipswich, including the Athenian Club, Bells Football Club, Raceview, and the City Football Club.[10]

The present Ipswich Rangers Rugby Club was formed in 1968. Ipswich won their first senior trophy in 1974, defeating Surfers Paradise by 38-4 to win the Sunday Truth Shield for the Queensland Sub-districts A-grade competition.[1] In 1979 the club was promoted to the Brisbane Premiership and the A-grade team defeated the reigning premiers University of Queensland by 21-19 at Woodend Park, but that was the team's only win of the season.[1]

The Ipswich first team played through the 1987 season undefeated to win the Sub-districts A-grade competition and in the following two seasons went on to claim three titles in a row.[1]

In the restyled Queensland Suburban Rugby Union competition, Ipswich Rangers won the Barber Cup in 2005, 2006 and 2010.[11] The club won the title again in 2012, defeating Wynnum Bugs by 33-26 in the grand final at Ballymore.[12]

International players

Former Australian international player, and ARU president, Paul McLean played for the Ipswich Rangers in the early 1970s.[13]
