ABOUT US

The San Diego Surfers Women’s Rugby Club has been San Diego’s premier women’s rugby team since 1975. Previously known as both OMBUSH and the Rio Grande Surfers, the team applied for non-profit status and officially changed its name to the San Diego Surfers Women’s Rugby Club in 1997. 

 

Since then, the Surfers have rapidly matured as a club in terms of talent and experience, thanks to the dedication of the players, coaches, and supporters.

Competing year-round, the Surfers field teams for Touring, D1, and 7s, along with close partnerhsips to MLR's San Diego Legion 10s and the San Diego Touch team. The club has produced over 20 athletes who have represented the USA on Olympic, professional, and international stages and boasts 10 national titles across WPL, D1, and 7’s competitions.
