American River Rugby Club
The American River Rugby Club (ARRC) complete is USA Rugby College Rugby Association of American’s (CRAA) D1AA division.
The club provides an opportunity for students to compete, play, and develop in a competitive and social sport (rugby). We give instruction in the field of rugby as well as provide physical activity for those students interested, provide a framework in which new players can learn about rugby, provide a framework in which advanced players can improve their current skills, and foster productive relationships among organizations active in the sport of rugby.
Members of our club will have the opportunity to gain lifelong friendships, leadership skills, and strong personal character attributes. The game itself is fast- paced and exciting. All players are given the opportunity to pass, catch, kick, tackle, run and more!
