About the Condors

Our Teams

The Condor’s club has teams for every level of player. Any one is welcome to play. Below are the teams associated with the club:

Condors:

This side is the premier team in the club. The team competes in the D2 section of the Midwest division. Players in the team are the best in their positions and all clubs members are entitled to challenge for selection.  

Blues:

The Blues side team that is geared more towards young and/or novice players in which the play against teams with similiar skill levels.  This is still a very competitive level, and a great place for new players to learn the game, and hone their skills. Many Blues players use this oppertunitiy to break their way into the Condors squad.

Both Condors and Blues teams play each week unless noted on the Schedule.

Frogs:

The Frogs consists of players who are unable to make the commitment to training, but still want to put on the boots and have a run around the pitch every once in a while. Anyone, young or old, can play for the Frogs; the only requirement is to have fun. In recent years the Frogs have toured to Edinburgh, Scotland where they shared their zest for the sport in the semi-annual Golden Oldies World Rugby Festival. In May of 2010 they will be touring once more to Northern Italy
