Benfica had a player at the Portuguese Squad that entered the 2007 Rugby World Cup finals, Diogo Gama.

Benfica' rugby section, unlike other section's doesn't have a permanent ground. It practises in Estádio da Luz and in the Campo da Sobreda.

It is expected to have a grass field capable of internacional matches, plus 2 synthetic fields for youth development, 3 football fields for Under 12, a 2,000 people stand and additional logistical support.

Benfica hopes to have 500 athletes from 8 years old to 21 years old practsing Rubgy in a 3 to 5 year timeline, as soon as the project is complete.
