*Have you given back lately?

Men's Rugby at the University of South Carolina would like to extend a special thanks to these gentlemen and countless others who have made it their mission in life to grow the sport of rugby to all corners of the earth. It is through their hard work and unfaltering determination that future generations will have the opportunity to experience this amazing sport.

If you know of a former Carolina Rugby player that has given back to the sport, please submit their picture and information to TheCarolinaRugbyFoundation@gmail.com so that we may recognize their service.
