​
Since 1954 rugby has been played continuously in our province and is enjoyed by people of all ages, ability, and skill levels. Whether you aspire to play for Canada or are new to the game, there is an opportunity for everyone to get involved.
​
Traditionally, rugby in Alberta is played from the first week of May to the last week of September. Most clubs begin outdoor training in early April at their own facilities, but the CRU serves as the main hub for rugby Saturdays as we are located on over 30 acres of land, offering 5 full rugby pitches.
​
Our clubhouse includes a kitchen, bar, and a patio that offers an amazing view of the Rocky Mountains. It serves the rugby community and also operates as an event facility for parties, weddings, fundraisers, and other events. For more information about our clubhouse and facility CLICK HERE
