The nation's top girls rugby programs descend on the pitch this week for three days of championship rugby.

In all, 21 girls high school teams will compete across four brackets (HS Tier 1 & 2; Club Tier 1 & 2) to crown the 2026 USA YHS Girls National Champions. 

In addition, the tournament will showcase a Middle school division that has seven participating teams.

Festivities kick off Thursday with the official Opening Social for visiting teams, alongside a USA Rugby Combine giving athletes the chance to test in front of national team scouts. Pool play kicks off on Friday morning, with placement and championship rounds running throughout Saturday’s play. 

On Thursday, all teams are invited to a gathering bringing together athletes, coaches, referees, sponsors, supporters, and event staff before competition begins. This is a great opportunity to connect over a shared meal, enjoy cultural performances, hear from guest speakers, and celebrate the community and spirit of girls rugby ahead of Nationals weekend.

Competition on Friday and Saturday

All games are at the Regional Athletic Complex 2280 Rose Park Ln, Salt Lake City, Utah
