A heavy dose of rain hampered morning matches, but the top notch rugby-only pitches at the Moose Rugby Grounds in Elkhart, Indiana held up beautifully.  As the afternoon cleared up, so did the matches.

While at least half the size of past tournaments, this was a big step in getting teams and kids playing again.  A late start allowed teams to drive in Saturday morning if needed.  For some teams like DSHA, this was their first game since Fall of 2019.  Most teams involved have seen their league schedules delayed or outright cancelled.  Many thanks to the Midwest Referee Society for support as well as that of the Midwest Youth Coodinator, Bob Cronquist..
