Why You Should Not Miss This

Momentum matters. Rugby is on the rise nationally, and early adopters will have the advantage as opportunities expand in high school, college, and beyond.

This is not just a clinic. It is a safe, non-contact introduction to rugby, making it ideal for first-time players and families who want to explore the sport in a structured environment.

Spots are limited, and interest is building across northeast Indiana. If you wait, you may miss your chance to be part of the first group stepping into something bigger.
