MIT RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB

Happy 75th anniversary to the MIT Rugby Football Club!!

MIT has begun training for the spring season. We are currently playing touch rugby on Tuesday nights on Roberts Field from 7:00 to 9:00 PM. We will begin official practices on Tuesday, March 26th. The full spring practice schedule is listed below. We’re still working out the exact match schedule, but we plan to compete in the NERFU cup in Newport, RI on May 18th and 19th.

MIT's fall season has begun, with practices on Tuesday and Thursday nights. It's not too late to join, just contact mitrugby-exec@mit.edu for more information. The team is always looking for new players. No prior experience necessary. All home games will be played on Briggs Field with kickoffs scheduled for 1:00 PM. Below is our schedule for the fall:

The club is looking to build on our Fall 4-0 scrimmage record by competing in a number of matches in the Spring and a couple of tournaments. Schedule TBD

MIT welcomes any players from the local community. We are looking to add new players, with or without experience. We have members ranging from those that have played competitively for many years, often internationally, and those that began this Fall. We have spare sets of cleats if you want to come out and give it a try.

Practice has begun for the fall season, with our first scrimmage scheduled for September 17 against Boston Rugby at the Irish Cultural Center in Canton, MA.

New and old players are welcome. No experience necessary. Feel free to bring friends, classmates, or anyone you think might be interested.

It is with heavy hearts we share the sad news that two members of the MITRFC community, Jake Kennedy and Emile Bruneau (pictured above, second from right), recently passed away. Both men were known for their vast contributions on and off the pitch.

MIT's fall season has been cancelled due to COVID-19. We will begin playing again when state agencies, NERFU, and MIT club sports agree that it is safe to do so. We hope everyone stays safe and fit in the meantime!

Practice will be on Mondays throughout the spring season, starting on March 9, 2020. We will also meet Wednesdays for touch rugby and fitness / drills. Both Monday and Wednesday sessions will be at 7:00 PM on Roberts Field.
