The
Economist discusses the growth of rugby in America
Those responsible for promoting rugby in America are confident that
when more people see it, they will love it. “Americans like combat
sports and good athletes,” says Nigel Melville, the head of USA
Rugby. True. Yet they also have a penchant for sports that promote
superstars and breed controversy, both on and off the field. With
its emphasis on teamwork and fair play, rugby doesn’t quite fit
that mould.

Our
goal is to expose high school players to the great game
of rugby. Since 1996, Forest Hills has been
fielding a side at the high school level. We are a club sport for all
three Forest Hills schools for boys in 9th to 12th
grade. We also welcome
players from other schools. No experience is necessary.
The sport is not just football without pads. Think more of
"tackle basketball". Hockey players, wrestlers
and soccer players quickly adapt to our sport as well.
