This season’s Youth Rugby Program was a massive success, with outstanding numbers and energy across all age groups! Head Coach Caleb Stick, alongside assistants David Letain an alumni Joel Verville, led the charge in creating a fun, safe and exciting rugby environment for our youngest players to grow and thrive.
Our U8 Flag Rugby group came out in full force with amazing turnout and energy every week, while our U14 Intro to Contact squad took huge strides learning the fundamentals of the game and building confidence on the pitch. Seeing so many young athletes take to the sport with enthusiasm was a clear sign: the future of rugby is looking bright!
We also saw a strong participation during the Rugby Jamborees hosted by Rugby Manitoba, where our youth players got to showcase their skills and experience the rugby community in full force.
A huge thank you to the parents who showed up week after week, supporting their kids and giving them the chance to try something new. And of course, our deepest gratitude to the Assassins Alumni Memorial Golf Tournament—whose fundraising efforts help keep costs low so every child can experience rugby without financial barriers. Because rugby should be for everyone!
Here’s to growing the game, one little Assassin at a time!
