About Our Organization
Marist Women’s Rugby Club is a team of women who are determined, kind, and resilient. There is absolutely no experience needed to join, almost all members of the team learned how to play here at Marist. In the past few years our team has experienced some great success due to the guidance of our dedicated and expert coaches. Our coaches teach us smart and safe rugby tactics since it’s a full-contact sport. We compete both in the fall and spring semesters. The fall consists of 15’s rugby play with approximately six conference games followed by playoffs. The spring season focuses more on 7’s style of rugby play and tournaments.
We compete at the Division II club level in the Tri-State area. In 2019, we were ranked as fourth in the nation and ended our season at second in the conference. Our team is all about inclusion and encourages women to give it a try.
