Summer Rugby Getting Underway
MALDEN, MA – The Mystic Summer Rugby program is starting to get rolling. The main summer rugby program for men’s and college players is kicking off with a 15s tour to Montreal on May 31st, where the Mystics will be sending a college-focused side up to play against a regional representative side on June 1st. As soon as the tour completes, the side will be moving into 7’s mode, where we aim to have both a college side and a men’s side entered into various tournaments. More details for the 7’s and summer program can be found at: www.mysticrugby.com/summer/.
The U19, and Youth Rugby programs are also close to getting underway, and registration is already open in preparation for practices in early June. The program will be expanding to include contact at the U15 level, which will hopefully drive more interest in the program. Details on all the youth rugby on offer can be found at www.mysticrugby.com/youth/. We are always looking for help with coaching and organising, so if you think you might have a few moments to spare this summer, please get in touch with Dave Rudzinsky. (A huge thanks are due to Buzzy for making the youth program such a continuing success!)
