Who we are

Continuing our principal goal of expanding rugby culture, we recognize the importance of an inclusive youth rugby program. Our club is surrounded by high schools and middle schools eager to expand athletic options for their students, our aim is to help these students find an outlet they enjoy.

Patrick Graham is the Head Youth Coach, he has coached rugby for nine years as well as referees both youth and adults. Our senior teams provide assistant coaches as well as guidance from real world players. The youth coaching staff adheres to the strict code of 'Players First'. All coaches respect and guide players in the skills necessary to build good rugby players as well as brave young citizens of the world.

Rugby is international – we welcome visiting teams from all over the US and Canada as well as foreign traveling teams. This practice continues to reinforce rugby culture which emphasizes diversity and interconnectedness.

We accept all players of any athletic background, regardless of rugby experience or not. Rugby is a very positive force in the lives of our youth, giving them discipline, motivation, social skills, health, and most of all fun.
