Old Age and Treachery vs. Youth and Exuberance – Alumni Match Week is Here!
We’re gearing up for our annual Alumni Match, where experience meets energy in an epic showdown of old age and treachery vs. youth and exuberance. This event honors the original team of bold, and often cheeky, Navy SEALs and Sailors who took to the pitch in the 60s and 70s—and commemorates the life of a great warrior, Mike Emerson, of BUD/S Class 40.
We’re also proud to celebrate 10 years of Coronado High School Rugby—a decade of grit, growth, and glory.
Now in its second year, this match is more than just a game. It’s a chance to strengthen our lifelong learning community, foster mentorship across generations, and support alumni as they grow into the leaders we’ve prepared them to be.
The match promises fun, challenge, and most of all—connection. It’s a place for stories, wisdom, friendly competition, and a whole lot of heart. Whether you’re playing, coaching, or cheering, come be part of the action and legacy. The Old Frogs are ready to take back the trophy—see you on the pitch!
