Middle School Rugby
WHO is it for?
All middle school aged boys welcome (U15)*! Whether you're new to sports, looking for a fresh challenge, or eager to be part of a close-knit team, rugby welcomes players of all abilities and backgrounds. It's a sport where inclusiveness shines, and there's a position for every type of athlete.
It is a great sport on its own and an excellent cross training sport for football, wrestling, basketball, and even soccer.
We currently only offer a boys program as it is not co-ed, but if there is interest would love to start a girls program!
*(DOB between 9/2/09 and 9/1/12 for the year ending 8/31/2025)
WHY play Rugby?
Rugby is a dynamic, team-oriented sport that builds confidence, resilience, and lifelong friendships. It teaches important values like discipline, respect, and teamwork while helping players stay active and healthy.
Rugby is a place where every player, regardless of size, speed, or experience, can find their role and make an impact on the team.
WHAT is Rugby?
Rugby is like a cross between wrestling, basketball, and soccer. It is a physical, continuous play sport that requires a wide range of skills and body shapes of all sizes. There is running, kicking, passing, jumping, tackling, scrumming, and rucking to name some of the skills needed.
If you have an athlete that loves a physical game, but also likes get their hands on the ball and do it all then Rugby is the game for them.
WHEN is it played?
Based on current feedback, we will be running our Middle School season from April 15th - June 26th this year with potential post-season tournaments in July for a select side. This could change slightly based on popular demand and as we get closer to the season.
COST?
Only $125 for the season.
WHERE do you play?
While our primary field is located at Erskine Ramsay Park - Krebs Field 3601 Country Club Rd, Birmingham, we are aiming to have multiple practice locations throughout the city in 2025.
With a team in Hoover and the Homewood/Mountain Brook area we will determine new locations to open based on athlete demand. If you’d like to play and would like a location in your area let us know!
