Founded in 2014, US Pujols XIII can trace their history back through former Rugby League club Gifi Bias XIII who moved from their former base in Bias relocating to Pujols and becoming US Pujols XIII. The new club didn't have too long to wait for their first silverware as in just their second season they won the National Division 2 title after beating Salses XIII in the final 38-22.[1][2] The following season after accepting promotion they finished 3rd and reached the final where they beat Realmont XIII 26-23.
