High School Boys
This past weekend was a nice, big step forward for Rebel Rugby Academy as their three teams all brought home hardware.
Eagle Impact Rugby Academy are right in the middle of their Ireland tour, producing good, competitive games for two boys teams and two girls teams.
It's also a learning experience, culturally as well as with rugby.
On Friday the U16 Boys played Ulster U17s, the U18 Boys played Ulster Clubs U18s, and the two girls teams, U16s and U18s, played Munster's corresponding teams.
The North American Invitational 7s had some new faces this year, and that was especially noticeable in the Boys U18 Elite bracket.
Eagle Impact Rugby Academy was not there, as their focus is on a multi-team 15s tour of Ireland. But even programs we normally see in the finals, such as Atlantis or Rhinos, weren’t playing for the championship.
Day One is done at the NAI 7s and we have a lot of videos on our social media platforms for you to see.
Here's a quick rundown.
Boys U18 EliteLed by some power running from Cormac Saint and with Arno Agassi being very opportunistic, Rebel Rugby Academy is 3-0 in Boys U18 Elite.
Boys select teams from Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa assembled in De Pere, WI this past weekend.
The games are reported in more detail here>> but there's more to the story than that.
