GRR: Girls HS
By Samantha Hoegle - Nestled along the coast of Maine is Bowdoin College, a small, liberal arts College known for delicious food, challenging academics, and successful athletics. Bowdoin College is also host to Polar Bear Rugby Camp, July 14 – 17, run by Coach MaryBeth Mathews of the Bowdoin Women’s Varsity Rugby Team.

Last weekend, 11 U19 girls' teams attended Nashville's Nash Bash, and while not all of the teams won (of course), many came away with something useful.
Some teams ended the two-day tournament with a renewed confidence for the upcoming season; others left Nashville knowing that in order to succeed in their regular season, they would need to improve.
