Quite normally, as it is a town of West Occitania nicknamed Ovalie for the religion status of this sport there, rugby (Rugby Union) is the main sport in Castres. The local team is Castres Olympique, which was four times champion of France (in 1949, 1950, 1993 and 2013). Castres Olympique is the property of local tycoon Pierre Fabre, founder and president of Pierre Fabre Group.
Castres was the finish of Stage 12 in the 2007 Tour de France.
