Investing in the Future of Rugby: How Boston WRFC is Supporting Youth Development in the New England Region by Allie Brouckman

Boston WRFC is passionate about growing the game in the New England region, especially at the youth level. Current and former Boston players continue to have an impact on youth players and our hope is to provide young players with access to quality coaching, training, and playing opportunities that help them build their skills and confidence on and off the field.


This past fall season, Boston joined MIT Women’s Rugby who is coached by alumni Lisa Dobbs. And to start the spring season, we joined alumni Soprano & captain Stacey at Boston College WRFC.
