Join the Grizzlies

Become a Player

New recruits learn at their own pace, and we are with you one-on-one for every step. But a successful team is a lot more than the guys on the field - our sponsors and auxiliaries are a big part of the club. So, come out and learn the game, play with us, help out on the sidelines and socials, or just root for your home team. Contact any of the Grizzlies for more information on how you can be a part of a great rugby club.

You decided to check out a practice? Great! We practice on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 7-9 and Saturday mornings 10-12. Come out in athletic clothes and bring cleats, a mouth guard, and a water bottle if you have them--you don't have to for your first practice. We will introduce you to the sport at your own pace.

When you decide to join the team, complete the forms below, pay your dues, and your set to play in your first rugby match!

• Bring us a copy of your driver's license and insurance card or other proof of medical insurance.
• Complete our Team Membership Form and the USA Rugby Waiver
• Each player must register online with USA Rugby at www.usarguby.org and pay the yearly registration fee of $45.00.  This is a USA Rugby requirement for all players, and only registered players may play in scheduled matches.  We encourage each player to register with USA Rugby as soon as possible, but we do not require registration until a player’s fourth practice or his first match, whichever occurs first.  Registration for 2011-2012 will begin on August 15, 2011, and will be valid through August 31, 2012. Register with USA Rugby ($45)
• Yearly club dues, covering both the fall and spring seasons, are $125.00, and dues for 2011-2012 are due by September 24, 2011, the date of our first match.  You can pay online. The player dues help cover the costs of running the club, including the expenses incurred in playing both home and away matches.  Please know that no one will be denied membership or participation based on an inability to pay club dues.  If you would like to arrange a confidential payment arrangement, you may contact our Treasurer, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. , or our President, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .  These also get you perks like admission to our third-halfs and a gym membership at FIT.
