Nor'Westers Athletic Association

Nor'Westers Athletic Association Leading provider of youth, women's, and men's rugby programs in the Edmonton Region.

Established in 1974, the Nor'Westers Athletic Association offers rugby programs to the citizens of Edmonton. Rugby has a long and storied tradition of sportsmanship, camaraderie, and competitive spirit in Alberta. The Rugby clubhouse has served host to countless community activities, club tournaments, and private functions for decades. We are proud to continue in the tradition established by our f

ounding members, and look forward to further improve our club, having fun playing the sport we love. The Nor'Westers take their name from the culturally diverse group of entrepreneurs who formed the NorthWest Trading Company. In the 1700s, men such as Alexander McKenzie and their guides, trapped and traded for furs while exploring and charting the Canadian NorthWest establishing forts and the first settlements in Alberta over two hundred years ago. Many of these individuals formed the fur brigades that annually transported furs and goods by canoe across the country. Our crest and logo honor the fur-hatted trader/explorers and their native guides on a canoe voyage through forests and mountains on the Northwest river.

A tough match today for our Nor’Westers Women, finishing with a score of 12 to 29 against the Leprechaun Tigers.

While the result wasn’t what we hoped for, we’re proud of the heart, determination, and effort our players showed from kickoff to the final whistle. Every game is an opportunity to learn, grow, and come back stronger.

A huge thank you to the LT’s for a hard-fought, competitive match and great sportsmanship throughout the day. We appreciate the battle on the pitch and wish you the best for the rest of your season!
