Club Women's Rugby

About Us

Fordham Women's Rugby began in 1994 and has continued to grow since its inception. In 2004,
Women's Rugby won the East Coast Rugby Women's Collegiate Championship title. The team
again saw their hard work pay off when they placed 3rd at Regionals in November of 2015, and
4th in 2017. Every spring, Fordham attends the Beast of the East Collegiate Rugby Tournament
in Rhode Island and repeatedly proves themselves as a competitive team in the Northeast.


Women’s Rugby celebrated another successful season in 2022 when they made it to the
semifinals in their conference. The current team competes in Division II of the Tri-State Rugby
Conference in the National Collegiate Rugby League. Women’s Rugby is looking forward to
another promising year, starting the 2024 season with more new players than they have seen in
previous years. With great effort and determination on the field, coupled with strong team spirit
and camaraderie off the field, this team has a promising future.


Fordham Women’s Rugby welcomes all players regardless of their identity or experience level.
