Do I need experience playing rugby? Or playing a contact sport?
Absolutely not! Most of our current roster includes players who have not played rugby before high school. Many students join the team with little to no experience and knowledge of the rugby rulebook. If you are worried about it being your first contact sport, worry no more. Most of our players have also not had much experience in a contact sport setting.
