Non-Contact Rugby

Last updated February 4, 2025

Announcement: Our youth and high school rugby info is now on www.cayrugby.org

We will leave this page up and running for a while with additional info, but please visit our new CAYR page thanks. This does not affect the Vulcans site, which remains in the same place.



Step 1: Fill out the form below.

Step 2: Be on the lookout for an e-mail inviting you to join the team via the TeamSnap app. That will give you up to date information on our practice schedules, match schedules, and rosters. It’s free for YOU to use.

Laws (a.k.a. Rules):
