2008 CAL RUGBY CAMPS

DIRECTED BY CAL RUGBY HEAD COACH JACK CLARK 

Dear Parents,

The Cal Varsity team has a long history of success based on superb skills and a winning attitude. These are qualities we want to share with your sons during camp. Our camp mixes Cal's rich rugby heritage with an innovative staff. Our camp emphasizes safety and fun, while we remain on the cutting edge of rugby training. Our coaches bring with them the latest rugby skills, strategy and tactics from the international and professional arena. Our seminars, with campus professionals, increase awareness regarding academics, strength and conditioning, nutrition, and drug awareness. Perhaps our best endorsement is the number of young men who have returned for a second, third, even fourth summer.

Come and join us this summer and experience rugby at Cal.

-Head Coach Jack Clark

Cal Rugby Camps are held at beatiful & historic Witter Rugby Field.
