The Tucson Roosters (Tucson Youth Rugby) Youth team started in 2016 as an extension of the Tucson Blackbirds High School program. We ensure that all players, regardless of skills, experience or age get playing time and coaching focus. The team is open to all and enrollment is not limited to a school or school district. The objective is to introduce boys and girls to rugby through the non-contact version of the sport then progress them safely to tackle. We hope for our players to embrace the fun and values of this great sport and continue practicing it through High School and beyond.
