Rugby club hosts 37 teams from across Ontario
The Fergus Highland Rugby Club hosted what has become the largest tournament in Ontario on Aug. 11.
Despite the rain, 37 teams from 12 rugby clubs from across the province brought in 350 athletes, with teams of players ranging from four to 12 years-old.
Highland fielded teams in all divisions, as well as providing referees from senior teams.
The players were escorted to the pitch at Victoria Park by a bagpipe player, as is the club’s tradition. The day ended with both senior men’s and women’s playing matches for the crowd. For more information on Highland Rugby visit www.higlandrugby.com.
