The Regiment has a number of traditions and historical duties that it undertakes as part of daily duties to both commemorate past events, build esprit de corps, as well as honour fallen comrades and build comradeship with other units. The most notable and public of these is their participation in the Arcer national sport of rugby. The Regiment has its own internal rugby tournament annually amongst each of the three battalions, the winner awarded the Kilinmuir Trophy, named after the Regiment's actions during the Ardmori Civil War. The winner of the Regimental rugby tournament then goes on to compete in an annual tournament against the Royal Moorden Regiment. The winner of the tournament is bestowed the honour of being the 'Senior Regiment' in the Arcer Army, as both claim equal heritage to the title due to their common lineage back to the Arcerion Loyal Militia. The Senior Regimental Rugby Tournament was first organized in 1902 as a means to maintain morale when both Regiments were co-located in a bivouac during the Third Bush War. In the century that has followed, the RAR has won 2/3rds of the games, being the most recent champion for the past six years. | The Regiment has a number of traditions and historical duties that it undertakes as part of daily duties to both commemorate past events, build esprit de corps, as well as honour fallen comrades and build comradeship with other units.
