For weekday weather, please check: Fairfax County hotline 703-324-5264 or hotline website.  Once Franconia Park opens in April, on practice days when the county closes Franconia Park #3 or #5, coaches switch practice to the field behind Chili's.  Weekend closures are at the discretion of the Rugby Commissioner.

We plan to offer off-season training on Sunday afternoons in February and March with Regular weekday practices starting in March (grade and weather dependent).  Matches will begin on 10 April and run until the weekend of 22/23 May.  After that, Rugby Virginia will offer the Performance Program (aka all-stars).

We strive to keep rugby affordable. Your Fall 2020 Rugby registration fee covered only a portion of the cost of equipment, field permits, medical support, league fees, practice jerseys, balls, and socks.

A generous donor has offered to purchase up to 101 plants for us so every donation goes directly to the club!

These beautiful plants make great gifts and we’ll deliver it for you! For an additional suggested donation of $10, West End/SYC rugby players will deliver Poinsettia plants with a hand-written gift card anywhere in the DC metro area. Email poinsettia.fundraiser@sycva.com with details. Please order by 10 Nov; your gift will be delivered on 20 Nov.

West End's strength & conditioning coach Dan Twomey has created these workouts and nutrition guidelines to help all our players play their best rugby. Follow his advice! 

SYC West End offers 3 sports: 15s Tackle, 7s Tackle, and Tag Rugby. 15s and 7s rugby is for girls and boys from 3rd thru 12th grade; we play 15s in the spring and 7s in the summer, governed by Rugby Virginia. A House Tag league runs in April and May with the opportunity to play matches against other Rugby Virginia clubs.
