The De La Salle Green Archers (also The Green Archers) are the men's varsity teams representing De La Salle University. The women's varsity teams are referred to as the DLSU Lady Booters/De La Salle Lady Archers and/or the De La Salle Lady Spikers. The school's varsity teams participate in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines, among others. La Salle is represented in the high school level by De La Salle Zobel, and are known as the Junior Archers.

The De La Salle Green Archers were a founding member of the NCAA in 1924. La Salle participated in the league for 57 years winning five NCAA General Championships in the process (1972, 1974, 1976, 1977, and 1980). The high school (Juniors' division) counterpart was the La Salle Greenies from La Salle Green Hills until 1968 when De La Salle High School in Taft Ave. Manila was dissolved. The Greenies had won two General Championships. La Salle Green Hills (LSGH) was established in 1959 and was eventually made the high school counterpart of De La Salle University. It inherited the moniker Greenies and eventually became known as the Junior Archers. LSGH won eight General Championships until 1980 when La Salle withdrew from the NCAA.

From 1981 through 1985 the school participated in the PICUAA, invitational meets, interclub tournaments, and National Open.

De La Salle University (DLSU) then joined the UAAP in 1986. La Salle picked the newly established De La Salle Santiago Zobel School (DLSZ) as their Juniors counterpart. LSGH was later asked by De La Salle–College of Saint Benilde to compete as their Juniors team in the NCAA when it applied and was accepted in 1998.

Since joining the UAAP in 1986, DLSU won three UAAP Overall Championships, in Season 75 (2012–13), Season 76 (2013–14) and in Season 78 (2015–16), giving the university a combined eight overall titles in both the UAAP and NCAA. The Junior Archers of De La Salle Zobel have yet to bag a juniors championship in the UAAP.
