Club badge

Martin Cutler, a playing member, designed the club badge in the mid-70s. The design was submitted to and reviewed by the committee of the College of Arms and so any replica should adhere strictly to the original registered description. Emblems on the club badge embody the club's strong local and historical links with Chobham:

• The cannon represents the gun on the Green in Chobham High Street. The original cannon was presented to the village by Queen Victoria following a review of her troops on Chobham Common to celebrate her Jubilee. The original cannon was requisitioned during WW2 and melted down. After the war the village of Chobham replaced it with the present day replica.
• The four horse shoes is the sign of the Four Horse Shoes pub on Windsor Road where the idea of a rugby club in Chobham was first discussed by the founder members.
• The trees were a noted landmark on Chobham Common, known as Chobham Clump.
