This spring we’ve had our students in a group of older boys and younger boys playing rugby. It has been a great experience for them.
Our Varsity (older boys) are now into the second week of the playoffs and making a run to finish strong in the division 2 bracket. Our middle school (younger boys) are now in the semi-final match and are one win away playing in the State Championship game.
Rugby has helped our student athletes not only with hard work, teamwork, and fitness but has been very therapeutic for our students. We have values that are expected in the rugby culture in Utah. Integrity, brotherhood, loyalty, FAMILY, just to name a few. Rugby is probably (if not) the most team-oriented sport. It has helped our students become better leaders, be more outspoken, gain self-confidence, and trust in others.
