This seems to be the oldest sports club in Malmesbury being founded in 1890. Matches were played on the Worthys. After the First World War, like the football club, it fell on hard times. Did sport go out of favour or were times so hard that there was no money or time for sport?
In 1932 the club became active once more but World War II stopped play; cessation of hostilities saw the club revive and after a nomadic period they became established on their present site in 1948. In the sixties they ran very successful dinner-dances which were a must for the people of Malmesbury.
