Youth Rugby
The Patuxent River Rugby Club is pleased to announce it has once again expanded, to now include a coed “touch only” youth rugby program that will take to the fields this summer starting the end of May 2010. The youth program is open to all children 5-14 years of age. All boys and girls looking to try a new, fast paced and highly team oriented sport are encouraged to participate.
- The Patuxent River Rugby youth program is a “non-contact” sport; it is becoming increasingly popular in the local area and we promote nothing less than fair play, solid teamwork, true sports etiquette, and adhere to the highest standards of sports professionalism.
- The season will run from the end of May and will continue until the end of July.
- Practice nights will be held Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:00 pm until 7:00 pm at our home field (Across From Clarkes Landing Restaurant) in Hollywood, MD. Youth from Calvert and St. Mary’s counties will be participating.
- Children will be divided into age appropriate groups and coached in the fundamentals of the game by coaches certified by USA Rugby.
- Participation in various tournaments throughout the MD and DC areas will take place over the summer. No special equipment is required for this “non-contact” version of the sport.
The Patuxent River Rugby Club has been in existence for 20 years and is a proud member of the Potomac Rugby Union.
Registration will be the 1st and 8th of May from 12-2 pm at the Calvert Community Center, Lusby MD. Registration will also be available on line at paxrugby.com and can be done at any of the practices. First Practice will be the 25th of May at 6pm.
