NO Experience Necessary – we teach you everything you need to know about rugby!

RUGBY

Rugby is a sport derived from soccer and was a major influence on American football. It’s an incredibly dynamic sport using the same skills as soccer, basketball, track and football. Softball, golf and tennis players, and even gymnasts and cheerleaders, play rugby these days! Players use their hands, feet, mind and talent to be successful on the rugby pitch.

Rugby players can be big, small, tall or short and everyone has a chance to play and score. That is the most beautiful part of rugby. It’s a game of athleticism, camaraderie and good sportsmanship. There are NO try-outs!

Rugby is the fastest growing sport in America and is at almost every university in the United States. Scholarships are now being given to rugby athletes into select universities, as well.
