I am trying to find out which sport is the Oldest in Runcorn.

As far as I know, The Runcorn Rugby team seems to be the oldest sport on record (Established in 1876).

I have found that the earliest Football Club in Runcorn may have been established in 1903 - Unless anyone can tell me otherwise.

If anyone knows of any earlier sporting clubs in Runcorn than that of the Rugby Team, please - let me know.
