 The fulcrum was the desire of some enthusiastic players, already playing for other clubs in the area, who decided that due to a significant increase in Verwood's population during the previous ten years, that it would be worthwhile establishing a club within the emerging town.An inaugural game was organised and played at the Three Legged Cross recreation ground in March 1994, against Portcastrians RFC (now East Dorset RFC).The positive response to that game encouraged an approach to the Verwood Community Association to see if a playing area could be obtained.
