BYB rugby footboll club

Japanese Name:

B.Y.Bラグビーフットボールクラブ

We are the Keio University-certified semi-athletic club, B.Y.B Rugby Football Club, a member of the Kanto Student Club Championship Division 1 League! With a history of over 90 years, BYB is the only club at Keio University to have won the Division 1 Championship four times. While we have strong ties with our alumni, we have also operated under the philosophy that current players are the main drivers of the team since its founding. Players with diverse experience, from those from top-ranked schools to beginners, utilize their individual knowledge to devise team strategies, and we practice for two hours three times a week, working hard every day towards winning the Division 1 League championship next season! We also fully embrace the fun side of the team, with outdoor activities, drinking parties, and an annual trip to Okinawa for everyone. Many of our members balance their club activities with studying abroad or taking qualification exams. Of course, beginners are also very welcome! Let's enjoy university life together!
