The Club de Rugby San Roque is a rugby club that was founded in 1971 in Valencia, when a teacher of the San Roque public school of Benicalap district (Valencia) gathered a group of pupils and created an academy for this sport. Nowadays, the team is in the second regional division of the Valencian Rugby Board and has a squad in every inferior division.
Among its most recent successes, it is notable its promotion to First Division in 2000, being undefeated in the league and the achievement by the junior team of the Promotion Championship in the 2004/05 season.
