I would like to thank you all for the effort that was put into this last season.  We didn’t end the season with the record that we wanted but what it did give us was the opportunity to come up with some great ideas for what it will take as a rugby team in Northern Colorado to grow.  This last year gave our teams leaders the opportunity to take notes and ideas for what worked and what didn’t work so that this next year we have an attack plan.  A lot of effort has been given to expand our marketing efforts, player retention and training as we look at the upcoming season.  Now as Northern Colorado Rugby we get to make a new name for this team, a new chance to be more then "look out for Fort Collins Rugby, they’re getting better" to "What…..just hit me"!  See all of you on the pitch!
