July 31/August 1, 2010 Rugby Virginia Summer Youth Tournament
Hooes Rd Park, Springfield VA
On behalf of Rugby Virginia I would like to thank Jeff Rupp and SYC for a wonderful job hosting the Youth Tournament over 2 days. The organization was top-notch; this job becomes increasingly difficult with new teams entering the League every summer (+ 13 teams since last summer). I would also like to thank all the referees that helped make the game safe on both Saturdays and Sundays. Thank you to the Coventry Commonwealth Games for their support of youth rugby in the State. Finally congratulations to all the clubs for a great display of rugby! Frederic Bardot Executive Director of Rugby Virginia
