Amoskeag Rugby to form Women’s Team
The Amoskeag Rugby Club has announced that it is forming a women’s rugby team. The team is open to new and experienced players. Practices are being held on Monday and Wednesday evenings at 6:00 at YDC on North River Road in Manchester. The Fall season will be starting soon. For women interested in joining the new team or learning more about women’s rugby, please contact Brigit Ryan at Amoskeagwomen@yahoo.com.
The Amoskeag Rugby Club is New Hampshire’s oldest rugby program. Formed in 1984, the rugby club currently runs a highly competitive men’s program and a boy’s under-19 team. Amoskeag is the successor to the Concord Rugby Club, which brought the sport of rugby to the Merrimack Valley in the 1970’s. “Concord also had a women’s rugby program, which dissolved in the early 1980’s,” said Amoskeag Rugby president Mark Broth. “Amoskeag is pleased to be able to help bring women’s rugby back to this area.
