Oaks Rugby is celebrating its 20th Anniversary Season in 2027. The Oaks Rugby Club's mission is to provide youth in the Tri-Valley qualified instruction in rugby fundamentals and to engender a life-long love of the sport. Special attention is given to character development, including community service. The Oaks Rugby Football Club is a member of Rugby NorCal and USA Youth & High School Rugby, and the Danville Oaks Rugby Football Association is a California non profit 501(c)(3) Corporation and a member of USA Rugby and the Northern California Youth Rugby Association.

Good sportsmanship and fair play are central to the program, and players are given the opportunity to reach their full potential in a fun environment, irrespective of size, body shape or ability. The club is described as one of the East Bay's most active youth sports clubs, plays throughout the area and Northern California and beyond, and is kicking off its milestone year with a full rebrand.
The U8 program mainly consists of 1st and 2nd graders (coed) and is intended to introduce the game by playing flag rugby, with coaches allowed on the playing field during matches to provide instruction, unlimited substitutions, and 5 players on a side, and it may provide a Danville-based internal league as player numbers permit. The U10 program primarily consists of 3rd and 4th graders (coed), plays tackle rugby with uncontested scrums, no line-outs, and no conversion kicks after a try is scored, has unlimited substitutions with 10 players on a side, and may provide an Oaks-based internal league as player numbers permit and may have travel teams selected for away games. The U12 program is primarily for 5th and 6th graders (coed), plays tackle rugby with uncontested scrums, contested line-outs, and no conversion kicks after a try is scored, and has unlimited substitutions with 12 players on a side. Boys Middle School plays full tackle rugby with 8-man scrums, contested line-outs, and conversion kicks after a try is scored under Rugby Union Laws, with unlimited substitution and 15 players on a side. Girls Middle School plays 7 a-side rugby with full tackle, 3-man scrums, contested line-outs, and conversion kicks after a try is scored under Rugby Union Laws, in a tournament format with multiple 7s games being played during the day, with unlimited substitution and 7 players on a side. The Varsity Girls team is called the Lady Oaks, plays in the Rugby NorCal Varsity Girls Division 1, plays two 35-minute halves with a 10-minute halftime under Rugby Union Laws, and the team will travel with associated costs not included in registration. The Oaks High School program provides opportunities for all skill levels. Sponsors have their logo featured on player jerseys, shorts, and socks across all programs.
