HISTORY - Harlequins rugby is a professional rugby union team based in London, England. The club was founded in 1866, making it one of the oldest rugby clubs in the world.
The early years of Harlequins rugby were marked by the club's distinctive multicolored kit, which included diamonds of various colours. This kit gave rise to the club's nickname, the "Harlequins."
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Harlequins played in the top level of English rugby and won a number of prestigious trophies, including the Middlesex Sevens and the Rugby Football Union (RFU) County Championship.
During the mid-20th century, Harlequins experienced a period of decline, with the club struggling to maintain its status as a top-tier team. However, the club bounced back in the 1990s, winning the RFU Cup in 1991 and reaching the final of the European Cup in 1998.
In the early 2000s, Harlequins became one of the founding members of the English Premiership, the top level of professional rugby union in England. The club has since enjoyed a period of sustained success, winning the Premiership title in 2012 and the European Challenge Cup in 2011, 2012, and 2021.
In recent years, Harlequins have also been known for their exciting and innovative style of play, which has earned them a legion of fans both in England and around the world. The club's current roster includes a number of talented players, including England internationals Danny Care, Joe Marler, and Mike Brown
