Back in the 1960s the town of Antrim suffered a population explosion from the extent of being situated on the main route between Belfast and the North West.
On the strength of this report, several local enthusiasts including Councillors Jack Allen and Jarvis Campbell got together and Antrim RFC was formed in the Summer of 1966.
The teams were formed from local players who left neighbouring clubs plus a large influx of schoolboys mainly from the Ballymena.
Until the early 1970s, the pitch was still a field beside the Antrim Borough Council offices on the Steeple Road with changing rooms being a converted cow shed.
After becoming recognised as one of the most ambitious teams in the Qualifying league, Antrim RFC went on to win the Gordon West Memorial in 2001 at Ravenhill.
The league was once again restructured & with the team holding their own and with player numbers increasing on a continuous basis, the playing squad formed their own sub committee and appointed a proper coach, found a new sponsor for the match kits and approached the Ulster Branch with a proposal to rejoin the Kukri Qualifying Section.
The Viking Minis were able to field their first competitive team in almost 10 years and make their debut in the half time of the Heineken Cup game of Ulster vs Saracens in the reopening of the newly refurbished Ravenhill stadium.
