Heath Rugby Club is an English rugby union club based in Greetland, near Halifax, West Yorkshire. The first XV team plays in National 2 North, having been promoted into tier five following the league restructuring at the end of the 2021–22 season. This was the club's second promotion in three seasons, after finishing runner-up in two consecutive seasons in Yorkshire 1,[1][2] obtaining promotion as the best ranked runner-up.
