The California Collegiate Conference is a regional collegiate rugby conference affiliated with the College Rugby Association of America (CRAA) that operates two levels, D1A and D1AA. 

The league realignment in 2022-23 marked its expansion and formal establishment of the two divisions, with plans for promotion and relegation between the levels going forward.

For the 2025-26 season California Conference has added University of San Diego and UCLA to their D1A level.

While it's clear that Saint Mary's is the big dog in the California Conference, there's a chase to see who can challenge the Gaels, and, furthermore, a chase to see who can emerge from the pack.
