The Walnut Hills Boys Rugby Club is excited to kick off our Fall 7s season and get back on the field for another fast-paced and competitive fall. Fall 7s is a great opportunity for returning players to sharpen their skills and for new players to give rugby a try in a fun, open environment.
Practices begin Tuesday, August 25 at Withrow High School and will be held:
Tuesdays and Thursdays
4:00–6:00 PM
We will also offer optional speed and fitness sessions on:
Wednesdays and Fridays
3:30–4:30 PM
These optional sessions are a great chance for players to improve conditioning, speed, movement, and overall fitness outside of regular team practices.
Rugby 7s is a faster version of the game played with seven players per side. With more open space and fewer players on the field, 7s emphasizes:
Passing and ball skills
Speed and fitness
Decision-making
Support play and teamwork
Open-field attack and defense
It is a great way for experienced players to develop their game and an excellent introduction for athletes who are new to rugby.
