Get off the bench and get in the game! Everyone gets the ball, and everyone can score.

All it takes to get started is a signed parent waiver and there is no commitment to try! No rugby experience is needed, and players of all sizes and shapes are welcome.

Bring the completed waiver to your first practice and you’re playing rugby!

Practices begin in late February and alternate between the Hall and Conard turf fields.

Coaches will be visiting all lunch periods at Conard High School on Friday, Feb. 7, and at Hall High School during lunch periods on Tuesday, Feb. 11.

To be added to the team text for the Spring 2025 season, text the message 2025whr to 81010. If you have any questions, please contact Coach Foley at [email protected] or 860-966-3588.
