JMU Women's Rugby 50th Anniversary. This year we are teaming up with the Women's Rugby team as they celebrate their 50th Anniversary. We will be hosting a joint celebration on Saturday, October 24th at Pale Fire Brewing Co. Expect food, drinks, and old teammates from both programs under one roof.

Saturday, September 12 • Baltimore, MD

MOB Rally: Baltimore

All Blacks vs. Springboks

In addition to the Harrisonburg reunion, we are launching a new series of standalone alumni events. First up: a MOB Rally in Baltimore for the All Blacks vs. Springboks test match.

  • When: Saturday, September 12
  • Where: Baltimore, MD
  • What: Pre- and post-game alumni tailgates around the stadium (specific locations coming soon)

Note: All alumni are responsible for purchasing their own tickets to the match. The Alumni Association will host the pre- and post-game gatherings.

We are still finalizing the full weekend itinerary for both events. All official registration details, event times, and updates will be posted here on JMURugby.com as they are confirmed. Check back regularly for the latest.

For now, secure your hotel room, rally your old teammates, and stay tuned.

Go Dukes.
