🏉🐝 Another big weekend of rugby at The Nest!

On Saturday, our Senior Women and Senior Men hosted in a pair of hard-fought matches.

🔥 The Senior Women continued their strong start to the season with an impressive 51-5 victory over a determined Stratford side that battled right through to the final whistle.

💪 The Senior Men were locked in a physical contest all afternoon and fought until the end, but the result went Stratford's way with a final score of 29-19.

Sunday saw our U14 Boys and Girls host Waterloo, Guelph, Burlington, and Oakville for a fantastic day of junior rugby. Plenty of smiles and plenty of great rugby. Thanks to all the clubs for making it such a great day — rugby was the real winner! 🏉❤️

📅 Catch the Hornets back in action this Saturday!

🏆 URC Semi Finals on the clubhouse TV starting at 9:30 AM

We'll have drinks, BBQ, lawn games, and plenty of post-match fun at The Nest. Whether you're coming for the rugby, the social, or both, we'd love to see you here.

🐝🏉 U14 Player of the Week: Grayson! 🏉🐝

🏉🐝 Rugby, laughter, and plenty of new faces on the pitch!

A big thank you to the 64th Hamilton Girl Guides for coming out to the Hornets' Next to give rugby a try! We had a fantastic time sharing the sport with such an enthusiastic group and showing everyone what girls' rugby is all about.

Special thanks to our Hornets volunteers Amy, Kelsey, and Kindle for helping organize and run the session. Your time and energy helped make it a great experience for everyone involved 💛🖤

🌧️🏉 Mud, rain, cold weather… must mean rugby season is officially back in Hamilton 🐝

This past weekend had all the classic muddy spring weather from start to finish — and everyone embraced it.

Both our Senior Men and Senior Women were on the road Saturday, taking on the Stoney Creek Camels Rugby Club, and both squads came away with big wins to kick off their regular seasons.

🐝 Senior Women: 26–12 WIN

🐝 Senior Men: 25–21 WIN

A huge start to the year for both teams!

Sunday saw our U14 Boys & Girls travel to Burlington, where the wet weather continued, but so did the smiles, muddy jerseys, and great rugby. Huge thank you to Burlington Centaurs Rugby Football Club for hosting the kids for a fantastic day on the pitch 🙌

And of course… what better way to celebrate the U14 Boys Man of the Match performance than with a legendary shoey 👟😂

The rugby season is rolling now. Let’s keep building 🖤💛

The Hornets were proud to be out at Mohawk Sports Park for our Spring Cleanup in honour of Earth Day — getting The Nest ready for another big outdoor season 💛🖤

With the season just around the corner, it was awesome to see our players, members, and community come together to help keep our park clean and safe for everyone 🏉

Huge thank you to Kevin Gonci and the Mohawk Sports Council for organizing such a great community initiative, and to Councillor Tom Jackson, MPP Monica Ciriello, and MP Lisa Hepfner for their support in making it a success 🙌
