We also have our 2006 spring schedule posted on the web site.
4. We need to get you registered with USA Rugby and the CIPP form. This is a third party insurance that is required by USA Rugby to play rugby. You can register yourself with the following link or you can ask Terje or Donny to bring you a form to practice. Either way we need to get this done ASAP. If you do it your self, click on the link and create a new account and follow the instructions to register — membership registration (yourself only). This is a must! As far as our team dues, the cost is $75 per season (two seasons). Please either pay the team by the first game or set something up for a payment plan. We don’t make any money from these dues; this money goes to field costs and referee dues. Please call or email with any questions.
