Newport Rugby Football Club

Rugby club playing out of Newport, RI in the New England Rugby Football Union. Bigger than a club, w

We are group dedicated to playing and supporting one of the toughest and most demanding games in the world. Rugby requires a little bit of everything – strength, speed and stamina. Rugby is also a strategic game that requires skill and ex*****on to succeed on the pitch. Many of our players have played football, soccer and/or lacrosse and those skills transfer well to the rugby pitch. On game days

we field both an A-side and B-side, so even new players have a chance to take the field. If you think rugby is for you, we encourage you to come out and give it a try.
