History

Panmure was founded in 1880 and joined the Scottish Rugby Union in 1884.[1]

The name Panmure was chosen as many of the club's original members stayed in Panmure Terrace, Dundee.[2]

The club began in Dundee but moved to Broughty Ferry in 1888, as tenants of Forfarshire Cricket Club.[2]

The club began the Panmure Sevens tournament in 1986. Teams play for the President's Trophy.[3]
