Delhi Hurricanes have given more than 35 players to Indian National Team by now & hopefully at current pace, we will provide more & more players who could represent Indian Team in near future.

After winning Division II Trophy, at the Callaghan Cup in 2009, the Delhi Hurricanes are improving rapidly, they reached the 5th place in the All India 2010, in year (2011), they lost against the winner of the competition in the semi-final, They came 2nd in 2014, 3rd in 2015, 2nd again in 2016, Women's team were runner up in the inaugural All India 15s tournament too played in Kolkata. In 2017, they made a history and became 1st club in India's history who won All India and South Asia Rugby Tournament in both Men's and Women's category in the same year.

On 31 July 2011, we inaugurated the first full-time dedicated rugby field in the country and the 1st Rugby Academy in India which started 1 October 2011.
