Men’s Rugby – 2023

Your Support Matters

The primary goal of the Men’s Rugby program is to provide the best student-athlete experience both on and off the field. We aspire to be one of the best university rugby programs in the country and work hard to develop each player as a student, an athlete, a scholar and a member of the community. Our aim is that the young men that are part of our program today, will go on to be great leaders tomorrow. Your support will have a direct impact on their success as student-athletes and on the program.

About Men’s Rugby – 2023

The Gryphon Men’s Rugby team has established itself as one of the pre-eminent rugby programs in Ontario and the country. The team is currently back-to-back OUA champions, having added to the its 2016 championship. Prior to that, the team won championships in 1984 and 1998. The Gryphons have appeared in every final since 2014 and are one of 3 teams nationwide to have appeared in each of the Canadian Men’s University Rugby Championships since 2017 – last year finishing a program’s best 3rd place. We’ve also seen many players in recent past go on to national or professional rugby honors and look to continue to produce excellent rugby players and people.
