The strength of the club has until now being in the 7's team, but in the recent years their 15's-team has started to contest in the top of the Norwegian Rugby 15s-championship. Most recently, they finished 3rd in the championship and the 7's in 2022/2023 and won the annual Snow Rugby in 2023.

In the early years the club logo had been from the club's time as a Student Sports Team. This was not changed until the season of 2014. The logo went from a golden harp to the antler of a deer. This was chosen to represent the club's Norwegian roots and the strength and speed of its players.
