This Sunday February 19th is “Try Rugby” Day as multiple Rugby clubs across the province will be hosting a “Try Rugby” event. Try Rugby events are designed for Rugby newcomers who are interested in learning more about the sport. These events are aimed at giving both girls and boys aged 12 and under, the opportunity to try non-contact Rugby in a fun and safe environment. This is the perfect opportunity for any young participants who have seen Rugby at the Olympics or on TV to come out and give the sport a try and to register to the upcoming Mini Rugby Spring Season.
