Tigers Alumni (Men’s Side) plays in the fall (another first!) against Eastern Rockies Rugby Football Union teams.  Our Arvada and Broomfield based club ventures into ERRFU with baby (cub) steps, but is growing all the time.   

New and veteran players like Pomona HS graduates Chris Meis (‘84) and Jeff Eberle (‘77),  Max Cramer (from South Africa)  and Paul O’Brian played from behind, through the rain and uphill, only to have 55-50 decision snatched away from them by Matt O’Brian, Chris Manale, Luke Stanley, and Mike O’Brian in overtime under a double rainbow at the first practice on 8/19/2010.  Good omens, great fun.

HS Boys (U-19) start practice in December for Spring 2011 season with Rugby Colorado (formerly Colorado Youth Rugby).

Amassing a 1-4 record on the day, Tiger Rugby won their last match and walked off happy. Players were grateful for local sponsors’ contribution of the admission fees, and reveled in another chance to meet up and play a little rugby on a wonderful summer Saturday.

The Denver 7s tournament was played for the 43rd year at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City.The Tigers relented 180 points on the day to 20 scored, indicating the level of competition in thebrackets for this event was a bit over the Tigers’ heads, but, with the makeup of each team being a bunch of forwards, it was reminiscent of the “Props ‘R Us” entries of the late 1980s, when this tournament was played in Washington Park over the Memorial Day weekend.

Jake Boselli started the scoring for the Tigers U-19 side, then added a retalliatory yellow card acccompanied by 10 minutes in the Sin Bin, andstill had time to demonstrate some of his many purported acrobatic skills on the warm summer day. Jake …
