Click Fairfax County Field Status after 3p on weekdays. Grove Point Park (TPFKA Franconia Park) #3 & #5 are our practice and match pitches.

Weekends: the coaching staff decides whether Grove Point Park is playable. Franconia #4 (turf) is solely impacted if there is lightning.

If there is lightning, we take breaks for up to 20 minutes for lightning within 6 miles. We use Weather Bug to locate lightning.

Thanks to all who participated in the Vertical Raise fundraiser…this was the first time we tried something like this. We didn’t reach our goal of $10,000 but we did raise over $6300 that will be put to good use to bring us into the positive for this fiscal year and to apply to our first goal: starting the cycle to purchase new match jerseys for our teams. Considering that the average raise of everyone who raised some was over $200, we are inclined to try it again. We would love to hear from you about what you liked, what you didn’t, or why you didn’t participate.

If you have donors that missed the Vertical Raise fundraiser, please direct them to the Donate button at westendrugby.org. All the money donated there goes directly to West End/SYC Rugby.

Best practice: please take a few minutes to thank your donors via email, text, with a handwritten note, or in person. You can also invite them to our Annual Celebration on 17 Jun, we would like to meet them!

Please let us know if you have any questions.
