   Hello Rugby Community,

   I am wondering whether there is a indoor touch game or league that continues through the winter?

   I live over in Gatineau and would love to get out for a run every once in a while.

   Thanks for your time

   Trevor

   Hi There,
   I have a sixteen year old daughter who loves playing rugby but unfortunately her high school has cancelled the rugby program in Lachute. Are there any clubs that she can join in the Grenville/ Lachute area? Thanks.

     Hi mate, the two clubs you should get in contact with if you want to play the highest level possible here, is the ottawa indians or the ottawa irish both teams will be playing in the top division here next season. Don`t know if your currently in the country but unless you are here for three years it is very difficult to crack pro rugby as the best rugby here is only for canadian residents or citizens. I know as I`m here on a short term visa and have been here twice ivè played in the highest level here i possibly can but fom there there is no where to go if you want to be professional.

     hope i have helped,

    Hey hows it going? I’m a Carleton university student who lives near campus. Played rugby all throughout high school and looking to get back into it, didn’t know which place would be best for me to contact. Preferably more recreational but open to play competitive again. Looking to play a few nights a week nothing crazy just want to have some fun. Please send me in the right direction, thanks for your time!

    Hi there,

    Im 19 turning 20 in a few months. And I have a massive love for rugby. I live about 5 minute away from the corner of Montreal road and St.laurent. So I guess more east. Any teams close by?

    I hope to hear back soon!
    Cheers!

      Daniel,

      Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Beacuse you live in the east end the logical club for you to contact would be the Ottawa Irish. They are east end based and train at Col By High School.
      Two other possible options are the Bytown Blues or the Ottawa Beavers. Both the Blues and Beavers are more a little more downtown.
      Feel free to contact the clubs directly and see which one fits you better.

      Kasia,
      Please contact both Hull, Coven and the Ottawa Irish. They all run very competitive women’s team whose training is located relatively close to you.

      Kevin: Please contact one of the clubs listed above to find out practice locations. I believe the Ottawa Beavers and Ottawa Wolves are the only ones that practice downtown.
