Season Summary

Come find out why kids who come out and try rugby quickly LOVE IT!  Players can come to a few practices before they register to try it out for free! If there is overlap with a winter sport, you can certainly still give it a try on one of the days or after the season ends.  We have many wrestlers and basketball players that are finishing up their season when we start.  We are a club that prides itself on a positive team culture and building strong skills that prepare our players for the game as well as for life.

Season Length

Games start mid March and run through mid May on Sundays throughout the surrounding areas in MD/PA.
