Pride Rugby in Halifax is back!

Hey folx:
If anyone is looking to join a new sport and amazing community, I will be running Halifax Rugby Football Club's Pride Rugby Program for the 2nd year!!!
This is a specialty mixed-ability, non-gendered and non-contact introduction to rugby program for adults (19+), or juniors (U19-U15) who may have otherwise not felt welcome to participate in the sport of rugby, providing a safe space for Halifax's 2SLGBTQ+ community to try rugby!
This year will run a little differently than last, we will train together every Friday from 6-7pm at St. Francis field in the South End of Halifax, and we will enter some dedicated Pride teams into a brand new Friday Night Flag Rugby league that we are starting up this summer from 7-8pm! This will provide a mix of tutorials/training and some actual games of flag!!!
I'm trying to nail down some additional sponsorship to bring costs down but I expect it to be $50-100 for the whole summer, and that will cover insurance allowing you to participate in other non-contact rugby programs through the fall and winter!!!
If you're interested, please fill out this form, and if you know someone who might be interested please share it with them.
