Suburbs Rugby Football Club is a rugby club based at Shabolt Park on Portage Road in New Lynn, Auckland. It began in 1916 as a team of local boys playing on a farm paddock, and it took the name Suburbs in 1918, after players came from across west and central Auckland. The club has used the same grounds for more than a century, and it has kept its own identity, turning down a 1932 proposal to join with other clubs under one name.
The club's history is close to the land it still uses. It bought its clubrooms and training shed in 1922, and in 1923 the shed was far enough finished for teams to train there by gaslight. The club colours were first red and blue hoops, and the club still carries that history on its website.
Visitors can see the club's story and its grounds on the website, and the clubrooms sit at the Portage Road address.
