The Waverley Rugby Football and Sporting Club (Waverley RF&SC) is an Australian rugby club that was founded in 1971 by ex-students of the neighbouring Waverley College and their friends from other local schools. As the Club developed during the 1970s and 1980s, the name "Waverley", its players and supporters, became synonymous with diversity, reflecting the multiculturalism of the Waverley municipality. The Club also developed into a sporting club playing netball, softball, touch football, volleyball and, in 2001, womens' rugby. It is plays in the New South Wales Suburban Rugby Union, the largest rugby union football competition in New South Wales. The club is based in Bondi in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. In 2020, in its 50th season, Waverley's 1st and 3rd Grades reached the grand finals of the Kentwell and Whiddon Cups (1st Gde and 3rd Gdes, 1st Div.) of the NSW Suburban Rugby Union competition. In 2022, Waverley had all 5 men's open teams reach the semi-finals as well as the U21s, playing in 5 grand finals and winning three: 2nds, 3rds & U21s. In 2023, Waverley had all 5 men's open teams again reach the semi-finals, playing in 3 grand finals and winning all three: 3rds, 4ths & 5ths.

Waverley has a proud history in the New South Wales Suburban Rugby Union competition since the club's foundation in 1971, having won the Inter-Divisional Club Championship, 10 Divisional Club Championships, played in 83 Grand Finals and won 53 Premierships (52 men's and 1 women's). Waverley has won the 1st Division Championship 5 times (in three of which the club also won the 1st Grade title), 2nd Division 4 times, and 3rd Division once. Alongside its men's teams, Waverley Rugby women's team were premiers in 2006, grand finalists in 2007 and NSW 7s Champions in 2016.

In Knock-out competitions, Waverley has won the Taki Toa Challenge Shield for Men 18 times (1983, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1997, 1999, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2009). In the NSW Suburban Rugby Union, Waverley has won the Men's Open 7s Knockout in 2023 (Plate) and Men's Under 21s in 2021.
