For more than 40 years, rugby has been deeply woven into the student life experience at St. Bonaventure, a tradition that has grown stronger each decade as the program has elevated from a regional power to the highest level on the national stage.
In collegiate rugby terms, St. Bonaventure might be considered a "super club" as they enjoy varsity level benefits including a professional staff (full time coach, strength and conditioning, access to physio, and more) as well as developmental opportunities for newer players, structured academic & admissions support and more, but retain a club status within the university giving their players an active leadership role in team governance. SBU Rugby is a member of NCR in the Upstate NY Conference.
