GRR: All-Stars
Women’s elite-level rugby is getting better, says Eagle Women 15s Head Coach Pete Steinberg, but there are some thin areas.
We asked Steinberg to spell out some skill deficiencies among the 200 players that recently wrapped up their all-star week at Tiger Town in Florida. Steinberg instead opted to discuss positions, and then extrapolated those issues to relate to skills.
The Women’s All-Star week following Christmas Day is done with a series of final games among eight teams.
Tigertown in Lakeland, Fla. will host the Women's National All-Star competition Dec 28-Jan 3 with eight teams covering all levels and featuring 215 athletes looking to break into the US national teams.
SEATTLE, Wash. - Rugby Washington (Rugby WA) has announced the complete staff for the 2015-2016 Girls High School Loggers All-Stars program. Led by Head Coach Sharon Blaney, two-time World Cup USA Lock, the leadership group of Kellen Gordon, Carly MacKinnon, Marty Quick, and Carrie White will be looking to continue the development of the female rugby athletes in Washington State.
After winning the London 7s and gaining a berth in the 2016 Olympics a few weeks later, USA Men’s 7s Coach Mike Friday said that those accomplishments were nice, but they were just steps to bigger prizes.
