CAmp selections

Nor’Easters will be hosting two training camps in New England (MA & NH - subject to change). All those invited and accepted should arrive with any equipment and materials needed to play: water, cleats, mouthguard, rugby shorts, etc

Qualifications

All athletes must be a part of a NERFU women’s team (any level) and be registered with USA Rugby.

Selections

Players will be selected after both camps have concluded. A panel of rugby personnel will be assembled to evaluate all players throughout the training camp.
Selections will be based on skills ability, coach-ability, rugby knowledge and attitude.
All ages, ethnicities, body types, and gender expressions are welcome here.

Athlete expectations

Athletes are expected to show up ready to support fellow athletes, be coached and to work to the best of their ability throughout the camp.

Once you have been invited and accepted a position on the team, there will be an all team practice prior to games and tournaments. Athletes are expected to attend all events and games. If unable to attend any team events, communication needs happen in advance for team leadership to make alternative arrangements in your absence.
