This month the Panthers will be holding All-Star try-outs and player camps for both boys and girls in Tennessee, Florida, North Carolina, and Missouri (see Events below). The goal of these camps is to select and pool players for participation in the invitational USA Sevens Rugby tournament in Las Vegas, NV in March, the prestigious North American High School 7's championship series which includes events in Philadelphia, PA in June and Salt Lake City, UT in August, and the Rugby Americas North Championships in July. New players are welcome to try out for our All-Star squads by participating in the below listed training camps with existing players. The more sessions attended the better chance of team selection. Players must be current with USA Rugby CIPP Player Registration requirements and complete the USA Rugby South Player Form and submit a $35 registration fee viahttps://allstarrugby.sportngin.com/register/form/433460775 During camps participants must wear a numbered jersey, rugby shorts, and cleats and should have their own mouth piece plus any tape and/or braces if needed, as well as plenty of water and snacks.
