Men's Rugby Club

Forging Gator Grit On and Off the Field

The Gators Rugby Football Club stands as a testament to the perseverance and determination that defines San Francisco State University. For over two decades, our players have proudly worn purple and gold while competing at the Collegiate Division I AA level against formidable teams throughout California and Nevada. This isn't just a club...it's a brotherhood where students from diverse backgrounds unite under a shared passion, developing leadership skills and resilience that extend far beyond the pitch.

As a student-run organization in the heart of one of America's most vibrant cities, our rugby club embodies the Gator spirit of achievement against all odds. Many of our players are first-generation college students who discover their voice and confidence through the transformative power of team athletics. What makes our program special isn't just the caliber of our competition, but how we've created an inclusive space where students from all walks of life can access a sport traditionally limited to more privileged institutions.
