Join Boston Women’s Rugby Club:  

We’re kicking off a new fall season with Boston Women’s Rugby Club! We’ve had an exceptional 2016 so far and you can be a part of our 2016-2017 competitive season! Interested players can email us directly at join@bwrfc.com or check out more information for new players in our New Players Page. Whether you played rugby before or not – all athletes are welcome to come out and give rugby a try! You won’t regret it, rugby is like nothing else! 

Congratulations to BWRFC 7s Nationals Players! 

Boston Women’s Rugby Club competed at the USA Rugby Club 7s National Championships on August 11 and 12 and the 12 players that represented the team made us so proud! After a tough summer of competition – Boston Women’s earned the 2nd Northeast Seed into the Championship, just behind NY’s Old Blue Women’s Team, and returned to the championship for the 2nd year in a row. Tight play in the pool round including a 17-15 victory over Chicago and a 14-12 loss to NOVA led Boston into the playoff rounds playing some of the best 7s ever. Boston advanced to the Shield final and lost in a redemption match to Chicago – but the team grew exponentially and competed well at the highest levels of competition. 

In another victory – we had an tremendous summer with all our 7s players. With collegiate players from BU, BC, UConn and other area teams, as well as an overwhelming increase in numbers, we consistently fielded 2-3 sides at summer tournaments and succeeded in building some of the best 7s rugby for the most players out there. We’re so proud of our Summer 2016 7s accomplishments and can’t wait for next summer to play again! 

Fall Schedule is up! 

We can’t wait to see so many Boston Fans coming out to catch our matches this fall! For more information please check out our schedule for the most up to date information! Home games are scheduled at Joe Moakley Field in South Boston, and directions can be found on this page. 

Gold Cup Competition

 You may notice our scheduling has changed a little – Boston Women’s is taking part in an inaugural competition between Competitive Regions in the Division I Women’s Bracket. So in addition to playing the tough competition in the Northeast – we’ll be competing against top teams from other competitive regions in the country. This means in October we’ll face Raleigh Women’s Rugby Club at home and in November we’ll travel face Midwest teams Chicago North Shore and Minnesota Valkyries. This new opportunity is a great way to connect with some amazing teams across the country during our competitive season! Stay tuned for results and read a great summary of the endeavor at The Rugby Breakdown!
