Powell Rugby and Powell High School

Powell Rugby Club would like to thank Mr. Langlois, Principal, Mr. Carr, Athletic Director, and Ms. Bales, a Counselor at Powell High School for supporting the High School Rugby Team and working toward making Rugby a Club Sport again at Powell High School. This means so much to the students and facilitates recruiting and communication between the Club, players and parents.

Middle and Elementary School Programs!

Since its inception, the club has focused on High School Rugby with Boys and girls teams. Currently, we do not have enough players to have a Girls team. This year the club is enrolling Middle School and Elementary School age athletes. Players under 11 will play Flag Rugby within a Powell Junior Varsity League. Middle school players will practice and play games within the SMAC Conference and compete for the State Championship.
