The Southern California Rugby Football Union (SCRFU), is the Geographical Union (GU) governing body within USA Rugby that governs rugby union teams in Southern California, the Las Vegas metropolitan area, Arizona, and New Mexico.[1] The SCRFU includes numerous men's, women's, college, high school and youth leagues representing all levels of competitive play. During the busiest part of the 15s seasons, southern California will have over 80 matches in a weekend. The current[when?] board of SCRFU is Chris Gleiter (president), Geno Mazza (vice president), Dominic (treasurer) and Marni (past president).

The referee society associated with SCRFU is Southern California Rugby Referee Society (SCRRS).

History

The oldest club in SCRFU is the Eagle Rock Athletic Club (founded in 1937). The second oldest is the LARC (formed in 1958 as Universities RFC, before changing their name to Los Angeles Rugby Club in 1966).[2]

During the late-1960s and early-1970s, UCLA was the dominant college team in SCRFU, under the coaching of Dennis Storer, later the first Eagles Coach when USA Rugby was formed in 1975. The Santa Monica RFC became the dominant men's team in SCRFU throughout the mid-1970s and early-1980s.[3]
