TRAINING & GAMES SCHEDULE

Specific details about days and times for each program are listed below in the program-specific information. However, generally, practice / trainings are twice a week (either Monday & Wednesday or Tuesdays & Thursdays for the older groups), and games are on Saturdays at CRU. 

PLEASE NOTE: all training and game dates are weather-dependent. In the case of inclement weather, the town can close the fields. We will always communicate closures as soon as we can through Teamsnap, however the most direct way to find out the field status is to call the Town of Cochrane field status line at 403-851-2552 (option 2) after 4pm on the scheduled day of training or game. CRU (Calgary Rugby Union, where most games are played) very rarely closes but if they do decide to for whatever reason, notifications will generally go out the evening before.  In such cases, we will communicate via Teamsnap.

REQUIRED CLOTHING & EQUIPMENT

Training Days:

• Comfortable athletic clothing (i.e. shorts, t-shirt, etc)
• Cleats (please ensure they are soccer or rugby cleats i.e. they must not have the extra toe cleat required for some other sports

Game Days:
