Brighouse Rangers was a (semi) professional rugby league club. This club was based in Brighouse, a town within the Metropolitan Borough of Calderdale, in West Yorkshire, England. It is situated on the River Calder and has a population of approx 35,000. The club played in the Wartime Emergency Leagues from 1915–16 to 1918–19 (January) but not the “Victory” League. HistoryEarly historyThe previous Brighouse Rangers Football Club were founded in the 1870s, and joined the RFU in 1879,[1] to become one of the founder members[2] of the new Northern Union in 1895, played in the first season 1895–96, became the first winner of the Yorkshire Senior Competition in 1896–97, and continued for 11 seasons until 1905–06, and disbanded in summer 1906. This club, Brighouse Rangers was in existence in 1915, but otherwise there is very little publicised information available. Wartime Emergency LeagueBrighouse Rangers joined the War League for season 1915–16 and spent three and a half years with very little success. In the first season 1915–16 the club finished bottom out of the 24 clubs with 3 points. In the second season 1916–17 Brighouse Rangers managed to finish second bottom out of 26 clubs with 2 points. The bottom club York also had 2 points, but had played one game more and therefore had a poorer percentage rating. In the third season 1917–18 the club managed a slight improvement finishing 18th out of 22. The next season, 1918–19 (Jan), commenced as another Wartime Emergency League but with the end of the war, the programme was terminated in January 1919, and a quickly arranged and shortened “Victory" League programme was instigated. This programme was never completed - and no league tables were ever produced. It is assumed that the club continued to have very limited success and folded before the start of the 1919 (Feb-May) “Victory” League as they do not appear in the league tables for this season. Note - Nowhere in the official archives is the word "Victory" used. It has been used in this article to distinguish between the two competitions held in the 1918–19 season. Successor clubsBrighouse Rugby League club have reformed numerous times since then.[1] The current club are amateurs Brighouse Rangers ARLFC. In the 1970 Brighouse played at Wellholme Park, near the Cricket Club. Towards the approach of the new millennium in 2000, Tesco bought the site including Brighouse ARLFC clubhouse and with the money, the club built anew on Russell Way, off Bradford Road.[1] RecordsClub league performance
