context_page_description: Valley RFC is a sports club based in Hong Kong with a rugby section as well as Netball and Hockey sections. It also has a junior rugby academy called Valley Fort. The club is historically based in Happy Valley, Hong Kong, inside the Happy Valley Racecourse, hence the inspiration for its logo, the Knight chess piece.
context_section_description: Valley RFC also known as Valley was founded in 1975 by a group of ex-members of the Royal Hong Kong Police Rugby Club, some displaced individuals and schoolboys who joined forces to enter a team in the local rugby competition. The result was Valley RFC, so named because of its home in Happy Valley. Valley's men of rugby have been running out in Black and Red for the past 27 seasons and have been the most successful domestic rugby side in recent years. The 2,000-capacity Happy Valley Racecourse stadium is their rugby union home.
