Barnes Rugby Football Club formerly known simply as the Barnes Club is a rugby union club which is claimed by some sources to be the world’s first and oldest club in any code of football. It is claimed that Barnes RFC was founded in 1862 but there is no actual evidence so the club itself states to have clear documents about its activities from the 1920s. If the claim is true then Barnes is the world’s oldest football club in all codes.
