Fairmont State University Men's Rugby heading to qualifying round for National Championship

For the first time in several years, Fairmont State University’s Men’s Rugby team has qualified to attend the National Small College Rugby Organization’s (NSCRO) Central Region Championship.

The team will play at Wisconsin Rugby Sports Complex in Cottage Grove, Wisconsin Nov. 10 and 11. The winner will qualify for the NSCRO National Championship to be held in April. 

This is a great opportunity for the team to represent Fairmont State University and the Falcon Nation. The funds raised will help to offset the costs for the Men’s Rugby team as they travel to compete for a place at the National Championship.

Fairmont State’s Men’s Rugby team is recognized as part of the Club Sports Program through the Office of Student Affairs. The Club Sports program complements the Intramural Sports Program and the Varsity Athletic Program.

Fairmont Rugby is one of the four founding teams of the Three Rivers Conference. The conference also includes Allegheny University, Carnegie Melon University, Franciscan University, Geneva College, Grove City College, Point Park University, Robert Morris University, Clarion University, Gannon University, St. Francis University, Thiel College, Washington & Jefferson College, University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown and Penn State University at Behrend.

Club Sports at Fairmont State are designed to help students develop leadership, financial and organizational management skills through the opportunity to create, organize and run their own club. The Department of Intramurals provides advisement and administrative assistance to clubs. The Club Sports Council serves as an administrative body within the Intramural Program.
