Manchester Medics RUFC is an English rugby union club based in Manchester, which last played in the South Lancs/Cheshire 1 league which it dropped out of during the 2017-18 season.[1]

The club is formed primarily by medical students from the University of Manchester, but a number of doctors and non-medical students are also involved.

It is one of the largest, most successful and social societies within the medical school. The 1st and 2nd XV regularly play on Saturdays, as well as a competitive "pre-clinical XV" playing midweek in a North West Universities development league. The club has enjoyed considerable recent success, most notably being crowned NAMS champions for the 2014-2015 season.[citation needed]
