The
University of Texas Men's and Women's Rugby Clubs are always looking
for talented, hard working young rugby players to join our ranks.
Are you a high school student considering UT? Are you a current
student, or a potential transfer to UT? Are you a serious athlete
that misses being part of a competitive sports program? We're looking
for athletes that relish a challenge. If you fit the bill, then
the Rugby Club might be for you.
Not sure
what Rugby is? That's o.k. If you are willing to make the commitment,
we'll teach you. Experience is helpful, but not a requirement. Go
to the Player Info page to
learn more about our sport.

Women's rugby:
Practice is
open to all UT undergraduate men and women. We hold practices at
the UT IM Fields. Men practice Tuesday and Thursday from 7:00 -
9:00pm. The women's team practices
on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:00-8:00pm. Games are played on
Saturday. Our players benefit from USA Rugby certified coaches and
a professional medical staff, both doctors and trainers, on hand
at practices and games.
At this time, the Rugby
Clubs do not offer any scholarships; however, the University has
many different types of scholarship opportunities available for
its students. Go to TexasScholarships.org
for more details.
There is also a Graduate
Rugby Team that plays in the TRU Men's Division III for graduate
students and others that do not meet our eligibility requirements.
See our Player Info page for
more on eligibility.
Overseas
Students:
Are you an undergraduate
student thinking of doing an exchange
at the University of Texas at Austin? Or are you considering a 4-year
program at UT? It's a good choice: the Times
of London has ranked UT as one of the top 100 universities in
the world for 2008. Every year, we have numerous overseas players join our
club. Players from Australia, Ireland, Scotland, England, Belgium,
New Zealand, Argentina, France, Zimbabwe and South Africa have become
international Longhorn ruggers. Come

the city of Austin
and the state of Texas.
