The club has the largest junior program on the island and is home to a number of Canadian national men's and women's team players.
In 2014, UVIC bought the area where the rugby club had been treating out of and the organization had to find a new home.
They were able to come to a deal with the board of the then Juan De Fuca Recreation Center; where the club has been located since.
When they moved, another change in name came with the club becoming Westshore R.F.C.. A nod to the region known as the West Shore, or the Western Communities.
Westshore RFC has produced a number of players who have played representative rugby both in Canada and internationally.
