Welcome To The RPI Rugby Club

Established 1979

What exactly is Rugby? Rugby is a free-flowing, fast-paced, full-contact sport that features a combination of strength, speed, and strategy to move the ball into the opponent's territory. With both a Men's and Women's team, the RPI Rugby Football Club dominates the D2 Tri-State Rugby Conference. Interested in joining a sport that offers competition at a collegiate level without the overwhelming commitment of a varsity athlete? Join RPI Rugby Today!
