Austin Area Rugby - About the Club

William Webb Ellis is credited as the boy "who with a fine disregard for the rules of football as played in his time, first took the ball in his arms and ran with it". Thus began the sport of Rugby, which has become a worldwide phenomenon. The cup for the Rugby World Cup is named the Webb Ellis trophy in his honor, and a plaque at the school commemorates the "achievement". More about Rugby

The AAHS Rugby Team was formed in 1998 as one of the founding members of the Texas Rugby Union's High School Division. In the Spring of 2010 a middle school side (U14) will be added. The club is comprised of student athletes in the Austin Area, with representatives from almost every area school since its inception.

There are no tryouts. As a club sport, anyone that wants to play rugby, or learn to play, is welcome.

Physical Education credit is available through the Austin Independent School District (AISD) Off-Campus Physical Education (OCPE) Program. Please see the AISD OCPE site for more information.

There are American Universities that currently give certain scholarships or stipends for club rugby players. For more info see the USA Rugby site
