NCR Teams Set for Algarve 7s in Portugal

06.06.2025College Men, College Women

National Collegiate Rugby has a men's and a women's team in the Algarve 7s in Portugal this weekend.

Dubbed the NCR Griffins, the women's team will play in the Women's Championship bracket.

they will face off against Kazakhstan, Portugal-based team Ubuntu, and St. Andrew's University out of Scotland on Day One on Saturday in Lisbon. They aren't the only American team in the bracket, with the Ohio Seals women's select side also there.

The NCR Griffins men will be in the Men's Open bracket. The Men's Elite bracket is full of very experienced professional sides, so the Open bracket makes sense here.

On Day One, the men will face Hitchin RFC out of England, CR Setúbal out of Portugal, and Campions Rugby out of Gibraltar.

The Ohio Seals also have a men's team in this competition.

This is a tough road for those teams despite it not being the Elite level. The Americans will be playing against regular pro or semi-pro teams that play together all the time.
