Overview
The
UW-L Women’s Rugby
team was formed in 1995.
Rugby has two seasons, fall and spring, with
games played mainly on Saturdays. During the fall,
league games are played against teams from
Wisconsin. In the spring, tournaments are played against teams
from Ohio,
Minnesota, Iowa,
Illinois, and Wisconsin. All women are invited to play on
the Women's Rugby team
for the spring season,
not just UW-L students. Rugby tours are arranged every
two years; past tours have been to
Ireland, Wales, Holland,
and
New Zealand. In
August of 2007 the team traveled to Australia with the Winona Women's
Rugby Club. Each fall the team also travels to
Thunder Bay, Ontario to compete against the women of
Lakehead University.
