While the past was a great time for UCLA Rugby, the future is even brighter. After a period of quiescence, UCLA Rugby is undergoing a renaissance as a result of a dynamic convergence of strong student interest, excellent coaching, and strong alumni support. Because of this, the UCLA Rugby Program has experienced significant growth in the areas of on-field performance, recruiting, fundraising, campus relations and organizational structure. Significant headway has been made toward building a meaningful program with great results both on and off the field.

    On the recruiting front, new relationships have been developed with Youth Rugby programs throughout California and across the U.S. and Canada, allowing staff and alumni to talk to young players about the opportunity to study and play Rugby at UCLA. Youth players wishing to advance their careers in Rugby now view UCLA Rugby as a top program and as a competitive choice to either Cal or Stanford. UCLA Rugby has built the necessary structure and organization to once again become one of the most successful intercollegiate sports programs on campus and around the nation.
