DEVELOPING YOUTH THROUGH RUGBY Theme – Premiership Rugby |

The NYC Rugby Cup is the annual culminating event for flag rugby teams that have come through Play Rugby USA's "Give Rugby a Try" curriculum-based youth development program. This year's tournament will be taking place from 8am - 4pm on Randall's Island and is expected to include 72 youth rugby teams from Play Rugby USA's NYC program. This event gives us the opportunity to bring all of our programming partners from the Elementary and Middle School levels together in a one day event to celebrate the year. The NYC Rugby Cup features fitness challenges, obstacle courses, cultural exhibitors, and, of course, plenty of rugby!
In the New York City area, we run a number of community based programs independent of any schools or community centers. These programs, run by trained Play Rugby USA YDM's, more closely resemble youth recreation programs. They give the youth of NYC the opportunity to play more rugby, or the ability to play if their school does not have a program. We currently run two of these programs, one based out of Manhattan and one based out of Rockaway. In addition, we have partnered with Not Lion Around located at the World Class Learning Academy in Manhattan.
