The goal of our Non-Contact Flag Rugby League is to introduce young players to the game of rugby, while incorporating its traditions of sportsmanship, and ultimately having fun. This co-ed league will consist of four, school-grade divisions. There will be the Pony Division (2nd & 3rd grades), Colt Division (4th & 5th grades), and the Mustang Division (6th, 7th & 8th grades). Each division plays a variation on the game with its own specific rules and procedures.
Our Contact Rugby League for 6th, 7th & 8th Grade Boys (Hawk Division), will introduce young players to the game of rugby, while incorporating the tackle aspect of the game. Since tackling in rugby is much different than any other contact sport, there will be a big emphasis on coaching the proper technique of making, and taking tackles. Our goal is that players learn the contact game of rugby, but most importantly are safe. All Contact players will be required to play with a Scrum Cap and Mouthpiece. In addition, all Contact rugby players will also play in the Non-Contact league to help with their understanding of the game. The Hawk Division will play a variation of the contact game with its own specific rules and procedures.
Please pass this information along to anyone that might be interested in getting their child involved.
Thank you for your interest in rugby.

Missouri Girl's HS State Championship Summary
On Saturday, October 26th, the two girls’ high school rugby teams in Missouri, Liberty United and the KC Dragons, squared off for their final game of the Fall 2013 season, the Missouri Girls High School State Championship. Both teams worked hard all season for this game and you could feel the excitement in the air. With beautiful weather and a ton of parents, friends, and rugby supporters in the stands, the girls lined up for the National Anthem and then kicked off the game. Liberty United was off to a quick start with Dallis Smith scoring in the first minute of the game. That score fired up the KC Dragons who put in a valiant effort the first half with the ball going back and forth between teams. However, the quick passing of Liberty United proved to be too much. At the half, the score was Liberty United 27 – KC Dragons 0.
The KC Dragons attempted to rally during the second half, but the physical effort of the first half was large and the powerful runners of Liberty United were hard at work. Liberty United scored 6 tries during the second half with each try scored by a different player. The final score of the game was Liberty United 61 – KC Dragons 0. However, at the end of the game, the atmosphere was not one of defeat; it was one of teamwork, friendship, and fun. The players on both sides of the ball gave their all and never stopped playing tough, intense rugby until the final whistle. Way to go ladies!!
