Rugby Club Sitges is a Catalan rugby union team based in Sitges that competes in the Divisió d'Honor Catalana, the third-tier in the State.

History

The team was established in 1987.

In 2002, the club relocated to the Santa Bàrbara field in the northern part of the town,[1] which was subsequently renovated in 2022 with funding from the Sitges City Council.

Prior to 2022, the team hosted its home games in the nearby town of Viladecans.

The club's most recent achievement came in 2021, when they claimed the Divisió d'Honor Catalana championship.[2][3]

They were relegated back to the third division of rugby in the State, however, in 2023.[4]

The ground held the Catalan Supercup between UE Santboiana and FC Barcelona Rugby.[5]
