The Houston SaberCats are an American professional rugby union team based in Houston, Texas. The team was founded in 2017 and competes in Major League Rugby, the top-level rugby competition in the United States that played its first season in 2018.

Home field

As of the 2018 regular season, the SaberCats play their home matches at Dyer Stadium[2] and train at Athlete Training and Health in Houston. The team previously played at Constellation Field, home of the Sugar Land Skeeters, for their exhibition matches in 2017 and 2018.[3]

The SaberCats have plans to build a stadium of their own in Houston.[4] In February 2018, the City of Houston agreed to fund $3.2 million of the $15.25 million needed to build a permanent rugby stadium for use by the Houston SaberCats at Houston Sports Park.[5] The SaberCats are expected to play their first game at Aveva Stadium on April 13, 2019.[6][7][1]

Houston Sports Park is also the permanent training ground for Major League Soccer soccer team Houston Dynamo as well as the Houston Dash women's soccer team.
