About Rugby

Rugby union, commonly known in most of the world as just rugby, though there is an additional form of rugby known as rugby league. At its heart rugby is a contact team sport which originated in England in the first half of the 19th century. It is a sport based on running with the ball in hand, in its most common form, a game is between two teams of up to 15 players using an oval-shaped ball on a rectangular field with H-shaped goalposts on each try line.

Rugby is a popular sport around the world, played by male and female players of all ages. In 2018, there are more than 6.6 million people playing worldwide from 120 countries. Rugby is played all the way from junior rugby through high school, college and internationally with a World Cup championship series every 4 years and is represented in the Summer Olympics.

High School Boys Club Rugby

Come join our Rugby Club!

Our certified USA Rugby coaching staff has developed an alumni base of players who have gone on to represent our club at the collegiate level, many on scholarship, playing for teams such as the National Champion Life Running Eagles, Clemson, Queens, USC, Furman, The Citadel, South Dakota, Kutztown and Arizona.

Every year we seek to grow and expand our program and have recently been able to develop a second team to help our younger and less experienced players learn and grow on their way to joining our Tier 1 team. We welcome players with both experience and those that are new to the sport. If you are interested in trying rugby contact us to find out more information.
