Welcome to the official home page of the Freedom Youth Rugby Club located in Sykesville / Eldersburg MD.
This site is provided to help coordinate information for our team, parents, coaches and supporters. The primary goal of the Freedom Fighters rugby program is to introduce young athletes to the game of rugby and have some summer fun. Freedom is part of the Potomac Rugby Union Youth League which is comprised of teams from the Baltimore, Washington and Northern Virginia suburbs. Most of our games are against teams in the local area. Read on for more information and review the "handouts" section to the left of the page. Should you have further questions, e-mail me at chriscarroll@remax.net.
Freedom Rugby Inclement Weather FAQ
- Do we practice in the rain? Rugby is a sport played in all sorts of conditions; rain, snow, ice and slush. Fortunately for us, we only have to deal with rain. In light of safety conditions, should it be raining on or between 6:30 - 8:00pm on practice nights, please meet at the pitch (what we call a rugby field) and be prepared to pick up your child.
- Do we practice in a light sprinkle? This is invigorating and healthy, so we don't fear light sprinkles UNLESS thunder is heard, or lightning observed. This is a cause for immediate stoppage of play. If you are not present for practice, please return immediately to pick up your child.
- What about if it has rained during the day but is dry now? Check the FARC weather hotline (below) first. We won't practice in dangerous turf conditions (sloppy conditions), but a soft pitch is a friendly pitch, so a little moisture won't hurt.
- Will we cancel because of excessive heat? The answer is yes, on a case by case basis.
WEATHER HOTLINE:Please take note of the Freedom Area Rec Council Weather Hotline. This hotline is for practices and home games ONLY (not away matches). The phone # is 410-549-6296, option 5. Save it to your mobile phones, please.
