Marin Highlanders Rugby Football Club

Some highlights from last weekend's hard-fought match with SFGG.

Highlanders alumni Kyle Fulton scores 4 tries!

Congratulations Jack! This will be Jack's 7th season playing with us. While playing rugby for the Highlanders, Jack has been awarded Forward of the Year, Highlander of the Year, was one of two juniors that held a seat on our leadership committee and as a senior will Co Captain our 2021 varsity team. We are all very proud of you and look forward to your days as a Wildcat.

Some action from Middle School practice today - Coach Peter Galicz I think we can all agree that was a deliberate knock on by Leo - penalty at the least and a yellow card most likely...

Congrats to Highlanders old boy Brady W!!

Welcome To Spring Youth Rugby! https://marinhighlandersrugby.sportngin.com//form/462755759 We are happy to communicate that the current State of California health rules, and Marin County, will allow competitive rugby to begin this Spring.... Spring Rugby allows Under 8s to play Flag Rugby, and sees the return of contact rugby for Under 10s through High School Teams. Starting back all Youth Teams will begin contact training for no less than four weeks, before being able to play matches against other teams. We are currently scheduling matches with teams from adjacent counties (per current Covid-19 guidelines) starting late-April/early-May.

After an epic tour to England and Wales in February 2020 our High School Season was cut short. And now, after an 11 month break we are excited to begin training again. If all goes right we will resume league play in April.

"Many have dreamt of making linemen into props and tight ends into locks. In ‘RugbyTown USA’, they think they’ve found a way" They should have come and talked to us - and the incredible relationships built by our coaches and the local football teams!

Alumni Spotlight: Sam Sirell Congratulations Sam. You continue to make the Marin Highlanders proud.

USA Rugby will explore a bid to host the Rugby World Cup in 2027 or 2031. Ryan Patterson, a co-owner of the San Diego Legion in MLR, told the Guardian: From work to date, we’d expect a Rugby World Cup in North America to be the most-attended, commercially successful in history, introducing millions of new players and fans to the game. https://www.theguardian.com//11/usa-rugby-world-cup-bid-mlr

Congrats to Highlander alum Jafer Snipes (SI ‘20) who joins Highlander alum Alex Aguero (RHS ‘19) playing rugby for Cal. Go Bears!
