The Uni-Norths Rugby Canberra Owls are a rugby union club located on the campus of the Australian National University (ANU) in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory. The club was created by the merger of both ANU and University of Canberra rugby clubs in 1998. Norths Rugby Club joined the newly formed club 3 years later, in 2001. Uni Norths have the best clubhouse facility within ACT Rugby, with outstanding viewing for games and excellent bar service. The Owls are on the up and up and with the Colts side performing well the future looks very bright indeed.
The team's colours are Navy, Gold and Green.

[edit] Team Song
We don't play for adoration, We don't play for victory, We just play for recreation, Mighty Uni Norths are we. Balls to (insert losing team's name, e.g. Easties), Balls to (Easties), We won't play you anymore- Anymore! We won't play you anymore! Anymore!
Why? Coz we're a jolly bunch of fellas And each one is a star, And if you want to join us you'll find us at the bar. And if you want to join us you'll find that we're alright, For we are the boys of the Mighty Uni Norths.
Should old acquaintance' be forgot, Keep your eyes on the Mighty Owls. Uni Norths! Uni Norths U-ni Norths! Woo!
