The Saskatchewan Rugby Union or SaskRugby is the provincial administrative body for rugby in Saskatchewan, Canada. It encompasses the North Saskatchewan (NSRU) and Regina (RRU) sub-unions, as well as several clubs and youth programs.

History

The first governing body was formed in 1890 for the purposes of organizing a tour to Winnipeg, Manitoba, preceding the formation of the province on Saskatchewan.

After rugby in the province experienced a resurgence in the 1960's, having declined due to the rise of football, the current body was formed in 1971.
