Girls High School Rugby Nationals Records & Notes 2024

Nationals Notes:

Congratulations to Eagle High School.  It's their first National Championship and the first National Champion from Idaho, which has seen high school girls rugby growing strong in a short amount of time.

Congrats to Eagle HS for also logging the most miles:  3,360 (approximately).  Meridian was a close runner-up at 3,354.  We used their school as the location.  

11 of our 14 sides were able to drive to this year's event.

City Honors logged 1,352 miles in vans while Columbia logged 1,324 miles, some driving through the night to attend.

This event would not be a national tournament without such incredible efforts, helping teams compete against teams they'd never otherwise see.

There were 21 matches played and only one of those was a match where two teams had played each other earlier this spring.  

Three JV teams participated, going 4-5, offering more well-coached participants to the event.

This was the first event to feature teams from Illinois.  Congrats to Hononegah HS and Taft HS for their efforts to broaden their horizons with competition.

T-Shirts will still be available online for another week.  This helps fund an event website project.

Mark May 17th-18th, 2025 on your calendars for next year's event.
