Rugby Pennsylvania

Rugby PA is excited to announce a the Fall 2023 Sevens Season. We have put together a complete schedule for this upcoming fall, concluding with a Fall State Championship on Sunday, November 5th at the Manheim Township Athletic Complex in Manheim, PA.

Registration

Teams a now able to register for the fall season through the Rugby PA Team Registration. Player registration is now open through Rugby Xplorer. The cost will be $120 for High School, and $60 for youth & juniors. The Player registrations will open up at the end of August.

Points & Seeding

Below you will find the schedule for the fall for both the High School Boys and Girls divisions. We will be tracking total points for the fall season in order to provide a more accurate seeding for the Fall State Championship. Teams will receive points for each match they play at an event (win - 3pts, draw - 2pts, loss - 1pt). These points will be combined for each of the 6 fall events and will be used to seed for the state tournament.

Junior & Youth

There was some interest expressed by some clubs to offer a fall competition for the youth and junior teams. However we have not received many firm commitments for teams leading up to the fall. We are still open to providing our youth and junior teams the opportunity to play, and will help create a schedule for those who are interested. Please contact dhamilton@rugbypa.org if you are interested in entering a youth and/or junior team this fall.

Rugby PA will also be using our Fall Sevens Handbook for the 2023 Season. This document outlines everything from registration, competition, rules, and host requirements. This was created in an effort to better communicate all the information to players, parents, coaches, and team administrators. Please review this document prior to the start of the season.

Rugby PA will now collect all individual tournament registrations through the Rugby PA website. This new registration will allow teams to show intent on which events they will participate in this fall, as well as provide your team contact information and submit payment. Teams will have the option to register for all their events at one time, or each event individually. This new process will help streamline the tournament registration, and allow us to assist the hosting clubs in preparing for their event.

The cost for each event will be $100 for all Rugby PA Clubs. For out of state clubs, you will pay either $100 or $200, depending on your team registration. Registration for each event will close the Monday before the event (subject to change based on host).

Teams are not required to enter and certain number of events to be eligible for the fall state championship.
