Rugby is steeped with tradition and heritage. At the University of Tennessee the Old Boys personify this tradition from within and outside the club. The Old Boys organization is a network of UT Rugby alumni that support the team. Their activities range from financial sponsorship to coaching and mentoring active players. They are comprised of former UT players, many of whom are still active Rugby players on men’s clubs across the country, who wish to continue to develop the bonds they made in their youth, as well as the organization that made those bonds possible.
