We are always looking for players and it is never too late to get started with rugby.  All our age groups need a few more players so that we can be sure that each week we are able to field a team plus have a couple of subs.

The easiest way to show someone the sport is to "bring a friend" to practice!  (it is free to do so).  If anyone has questions about this, contact Coach Rob.

Our parents have filmed various games over the years and posted to Youtube:

In order to grow our numbers to fill out these teams we need help from all current players to bring their friends out to give rugby a try!

Come and join a practice and see what rugby is all about!  It is free to come to a practice and check it out.

Also, we are a co-ed squad so bring out the girls as well as the boys!  Girls rugby is also a fast growing sport (check it out at the Olympics!) and the Firebirds encourage girls to come out and give rugby a try.  

REMEMBER:  It is never too late to get started with rugby.  If you have kids that are interested and want to give it a shot, bring them out to practice and we'll get them involved!

We practice at Longview Elementary (1209 E Indian School Rd, Phoenix, AZ 85014).  All age grades share the practice field together.

Practice is generally on Mondays and Wednesdays, 6:00 pm to 7.30 pm for Youth and 6.00 pm to 8:00 pm for High School & U16.

For the 2019-2020 season we will again be offering the following teams and levels for kids to play:

• Boys and Girls tackle 7s & 15s rugby for High School, U16, U14
• Co-ed tackle 7s rugby for U10, U12
• Co-ed FIT (international rules)  Touch rugby for  U8, U10, U12, U14
