Clapham Rovers was a leading English sports organisation in the two dominant codes of football, association football and rugby union. It was founded in 1869 and was a prominent club in the late 19th century, but was dissolved in 1914 amid World War I. The club played variously on Clapham Common, Tooting Bec Common, and Wandsworth Common and wore a cerise and French-grey kit.
