We train 3 days a week in the fall, and 4 days a week in the spring, when in season.  The team also works out in the Varsity weight room 2-3 times per week with a certified strength and conditioning coach, has pool regeneration sessions and video study sessions.  Overall, we provide a very professional environment with former international players as coaches, and have produced numerous current and past Senior International players and All Americans (4 in 2009).  The program has high goals to achieve and works hard to meet them.  We have 3 teams, a Div 1 A and B side, and a Div 3 team, that is more social in nature, so there’s a place for everyone.  Our players are a very tight group and SDSU prides itself on creating friendships and bonds within the team that will last a lifetime.  For more information please visit www.aztecrugby.com  See our 2009 Highlights on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9BiO7CtRj0
