Rugby Jamboree
Growing the game
The grass roots of Canadian rugby are growing strong on the Shawnigan fields.
More than 500 enthusiastic youngsters ran, passed, kicked, and tackled as Cowichan Rugby Football Club hosted the annual Mini Rugby Jamboree on Sunday.
The event, for ages 6-13, aims to introduce boys and girls to the game and develop key skills for those already playing it.
Organized by Cowichan RFC, the jamboree saw students from Rokeby School – a touring team from the UK – helping out as coaches, while members of Shawnigan's 1st XV also contributed as referees.
We acknowledge with respect the Coast Salish Peoples on whose traditional lands and waterways we live, learn and play. We are grateful for the opportunity to share in this beautiful region, and we aspire to healthy and respectful relationships with those who have lived on and cared for these lands for millennia.
Shawnigan Lake School is an independent co-educational boarding school for ages 13 –18 on Canada’s beautiful West Coast. Our diverse, interdisciplinary and innovative programming helps shape the next generation of global leaders.
