1697s Rugby Connecting the North
In Northern BC, we are share the challenge of distance so when parents offer to drive hundreds of kilometers to come to our practices, who are we to say no? One of our mandates is to create more opportunities for youth to play, practice or just be a part of a community. Thanks to Anthony at CKPG for coming to celebrate the hard work and dedication of our group of athletes.
Kamloops 7s is just around the corner for us and we couldn't be more excited for our teams to compete against some of the best in Western Canada!
