History

The first rugby club from Dumfries to be admitted to the SRU was Dumfries Rangers in 1876–77. The club re-emerged in 1901 as Dumfries (without the 'Rangers') and after a lapse was re-admitted to the SRU in 1923 as Dumfries RFC.

The club played at Downfield until 1939 and then at Marchfield and Summerhill. Then came a major turning point in 1953 when the club negotiated a deal to play at Park Farm.

The name Dumfries Saints was adopted to reflect the link to Saint Michael and the town crest which has always been used by the club.

Honours

gollark: Well, docker can impose some kind of CPU/RAM limits.
gollark: rule four. muahahaha.
gollark: Another significant issue is that I can't actually conveniently autoprovision VMs somehow, so I would either have to:- set up docker- just have people upload projects and have me manage service files- do that?
gollark: Also network bandwidth, since it's on a 34/8 home connection. That's the main limitation, really.
gollark: Wait, how much disk space does this take? My server only has 1TB.
