September 7, 2024 - Springfield Rugby traveled up to Springfield, Illinois to participate in the Celts' first ever 10s tournament, the All Americas Rugby Tournament.
It was a beautiful day for rugby at the University of Illinois Springfield as 10 brand new Mudpuppies clocked their first minutes for our club. We ended up going 0 - 3 on the day but we learned a ton about the game of rugby and about each other.
