Edinburgh Northern Rugby Football Club is a rugby football club in the Scottish Rugby Union, located at Inverleith Park in Edinburgh, playing in the East of Scotland League Division One. The Club won the Edinburgh and District League in 2005-6 winning promotion to the newly created East of Scotland league following a restructuring of the BT League Championship Divisions 4 and 5 in 2006.
Founded in 1920, Edinburgh Northern has a fine tradition of being one of the friendly clubs in Edinburgh. It runs the largest Sevens tournament in Scotland and is also home to the Edinburgh Eagles Rugby League Club, one of only six rugby league sides in Scotland.
The Club fields regularly two XVs in competitive leagues, social sides, and also has an additional 'Over 35's' team, the Gentlemen of Northern, for players who wish to continue playing in their latter years.
