History

PRO Rugby announced its second team, San Francisco, on November 19, 2015. Paul Keeler was announced in December 2015 as San Francisco's head coach.

On December 15, 2016, PRO Rugby announced the immediate termination of the franchise due to a wide variety of issues but mostly in regards to an unsuitable home venue and the inability to use Kezar Stadium.
