Play Rugby! - No experience necessary

Emeryville CA

Description

Come out play one of the worlds best, and most popular sports with a great bunch of guys. We are a Mens Div III rugby team that enjoys good rugby, and above all, good camaraderie. Preseason training has just gotten underway, so now is the time to join! We are the best organized and best coached team around. With great depth of numbers, we cater to players of all levels of experience - from rookies to veteran war horses. We also offer the best training facilities in the bay area, training on the state of the art all-weather Tom Bates Sports fields, just off the 80. All interested guys from the SF East bay are invited to check the team out. We range in ages from 18-50+, from 150 - 350 lbs, and in experience from total beginners to 20-year veterans and national-level players. Many of our team are foreigners, or guys getting back into rugby after years of semi-retirement. We play serious matches, B side matches, and social matches. We welcome anyone to check it out, whether you want to play rugby 24/7, or if you just want to come out for a run with us as time permits. We have a full schedule of B side games, which play after the A side games, and which is ideal for less experienced guys and guys who want to be part-time members of the club and get a few games in over the season. Experienced players are always welcome, and this is the perfect time for rookie players to join in and learn the mechanics of rugby. The off season allows all players to participate in the sport to get fit and avoid injury. Contact the club or check the website for field location information. Since we formed in Feb 2004, we have embarked on six great team tours [MBA world champs -Duke (made semis), Mexico city 10s (made semis), Thunderbird, AZ (beaten finalists) and Maggotfest, Montana (twice) and Wild West in AZ (2009)] Please get in touch if you are interested, or would like to learn more.

Richmond) and Mt Mike's Pizza in Berkeley. During the main season we only train once a week, with an optional extra session for guys looking for extra fitness and skills work.
