Houston RFC
Date: Jan 7, 2010
Entry: Rugby started in Houston in the Spring of 2007 and in 3 short years has grown to a club that involves 50 athletes in a school of 230, thus over 20% of the kids in our small school play rugby.

As the picture shows, playing in the snow is far from ususual too. This type of dedication to sports is the norm in Houston. We are GAMESTOWN!
