Stay Fit, Have Fun and Play Rugby
Play Summer Flag Rugby
Non-Contact Rugby August 1-22
Flag rugby is a free-flowing game that allows all players to pick up the ball and run. This coed, 4-week program invites all players to develop rugby skills while also practicing teamwork and sportsmanship. All youth teams place the highest emphasis on teaching and ensuring safe play. Summer Flag is ideal for children who are enthusiastic about rugby but uncomfortable participating in the more physical parts of the game. And it is excellent for those who have been playing the sport for a while as it helps develop greater ball-handling and evasion skills because of the emphasis on avoiding getting your flag pulled.
