Rugby CAMP

Overview

This year, the OGRCC is proud to offer a 4 day, non-contact camp, catering to both youth and advanced rugby players.

The camp, led by Ryszard Chadwick, Founder of The Rugby Advantage and Executive Director of the Northeast Academy, will offer training from USA Rugby coaches, MLR (Major League Rugby) players and coaches.  It will introduce a love of the game for our youth players and also offer advanced skills and training for our highly trained players involved in a more competitive style of play at the high school level.  Players aged 9 years through 19 years can participate and gain an advantage on the upcoming Fall season.

Staff includes seasoned rugby players who have played at the OGRCC, Greenwich High School, All-Americans and players with experience abroad and at the collegiate level.
