The official name of the club is the "Christchurch High School Old Boys RFC". This is generally shortened to "High School Old Boys" (H.S.O.B) and the club is commonly referred to simply as "Old Boys".
High School Old Boys clubrooms are located at 5 Ayr St, Riccarton, Christchurch, and the Bob Deans Playing Fields are located in Hagley Park.

A number of New Zealand representatives, called All Blacks, have been selected for international duties while affiliated to the club. Before the advent of professionalism in 1996, international players would appear for their clubs regularly in New Zealand, but since the introduction of Super Rugby, most professional players play for their clubs only rarely.
