GRR: Iowa Youth Rugby Association
The Iowa Youth Rugby Association 7s playoffs begin Friday after six weekends of games through April and May.
In a development that should probably be no surprise to anyone, SE Polk is undefeated, going 10-0-2 so far. Polk hasn’t lost a 7s game in Iowa in four years.
It’s Friday Night 7s time in Iowa as the Iowa Youth Rugby Association runs their Boys High School league in a way that is unique in the country.
The Iowa Youth Rugby Association single-school season is underway, and it’s a competition that’s different from others because the league is 7-a-side rugby.
Slowly but surely, girls high schools are taking 7s more seriously. Fall leagues are popping up around the country, which is a good thing, because unless you live in Wisconsin or Colorado, there isn’t much 15s being played during this time of year.
