American Tens | Linktree

Hi coaches,
!!!!!!!!!’Please forward to your players!!!!!!!!!

If your u19/18 players are attending this Sunday please have them register using the link below so Tiger rugby knows how many staff to bring in.

Also please connect me with any university coaches you know so we can start to build out the u23 program.

Our Florida kids that are out of highschool need to be kept in the game. The point of this u23 team is to give those players that arent quite ready for adult rugby and maybe arent in a college team somewhere to play alongside the best college players.

Heres the link.

Jacksonville 2022 - Victoria Sweet

First game of the season at Jacksonville. Jacksonville 15/ Hammerheads 5.

We traveled light with only 15 players.

The boys really put everything they had into the game and inspite of it being 40 degrees , wet and overcast with numb toes and fingers they played hard and did a tremendous job.

Couldnt be prouder of them, our brand new players who had never played a full game did amazing.

Looking forward to a great season!
