Daphne is Ready for Rugby!

Daphne's Al Trione Sports Complex will be the site of the South Alabama's first-up Rookie Rugby league, Jubilee Flag Rugby. Boys and girls ages 7 to 14 will compete in a non-contact, flag environment while learning the world's newest Olympic sport.  Rookie Rugby offers two distinct advantages over other team sports: 1) a lack of designated positions, and 2) every player is involved in every play.  The continuity of the game helps improve fitness while providing a safe environment for our youth. All of our coaches meet or exceed the standards set by rugby's governing body in the U.S., USA Rugby. Rookie Rugby offers kids and parents  a new challenge and an introduction to the newest Olympic sport. For more information on the host organization, please visit  Mobile Area Rugby Foundation, and Rookie Rugby for more information on the specifics of the game. Mobile Youth Rugby will host an informational meeting at Trione Park on April 6  from 9 am to 12 pm, where on-site registration will be available. Online registration will open March 2, 2013 and close April 5. Please visit allplayers.com for online registration.  If you have questions or would like more information on how you or your kids can get involved in youth rugby, please contact the Foundation directors Robert Corley at 251.272.1058, Charles Dube at 251.422.5698 or email [email protected].
