Edenderry Rugby Football Club were founded in 1951 in Edenderry, County Offaly. They first started playing on a rugby pitch given to them near the town's golf course. In 1969, Edenderry won the Leinster Provincial Towns Cup. shortly after the victory, the club decided to move grounds across the county border to Carbury in County Kildare with a new clubhouse being constructed in 1974 and extended in 1986. A further fundraising effort to improve the clubhouse was spearheaded by Moss Keane who played with a team of Irish internationals against an Edenderry XV in a charity match in 1990. The renovations were finished in 1999 with the Irish Minister of Finance, Charlie McCreevy and the President of the Irish Rugby Football Union, Billy Lavery opening it.
