Though we have no shortage of interest in this age group program, we wanted to highlight the success of our first season of Tot Rugby this summer. And give a shout out to Kelly Maloney for being our inaugural sponsor. Her donation was critical in helping us establish a shed full of equipment for these little ruggers! This program has already brought joy to so many kids as well as parents and volunteers and we are stoked for our second season to kick off in September. We would love to have this impact on the age groups after tot - so please help us spread the word to expand our Flag (non-contact) and Contact (tackle!) programs.

Registration is open now for rugby opportunities from age 2-18 (starting in September), as well as adult practices starting this week.There is something for everyone! Every body is a rugby body!

Sponsorship opportunities also available!
