Will you join us for the greatly anticipated return to State College?
October 15-17, 2021 in State College, PA
We hope you'll join us at this year's Friends & Family Weekend! What makes this year unique is that it will be low-key, with no formal banquet. We just want everyone to come to town and reconnect with the Penn State Rugby community. The teams (and all of us!) have been through a lot in the past year and a half — let’s come together and celebrate the program that means so much to us. We hope to see you there!

Schedule of Events:
Join us for the first official PSU Rugby Golf Outing on Friday, October 15th!
Where: Penn State Blue Course 1523 West College Avenue, State College, PA
Cost: $100 entry fee covers green fees, driving range, and after party at Doggie’s Pub
We'll be teeing off at 12:05pm at Penn State Golf Courses’ Blue Course for a fun day of golf with your fellow ruggers. There will be prizes for the winning foursome, 2 longest drive holes, and 2 closest to the pin holes. Mulligans for purchase. In addition to prizes for the best golfers of the day, pro golfer Michael "Moose" Watson will join us at a Par 5 hole on the course. If you can beat his 400 yard long drive, you will win the golf trip of a lifetime to Pebble Beach (worth $5,000)! Register now ($100 per person) for yourself or your foursome. All are welcome: rugby alums, parents, friends, and more!
There are a few spots left for sponsorship, too! If you're interested, please contact Mike Underhill at TheMichaelUnderhill@gmail.com.
