Tribe Rugby Football Club
$1065of $3000
The Tribe Rugby Football Club was established in 2010 by Buck Billings. Throughout the last eight years, the lives of hundreds of high school athletes have been changed for the better. Billings' enthusiasm and kind heart have opened the eyes and hearts of many of those who have played rugby for the club. In recent years, the club has seen great success. The mens team has won multiple State Championships in both 7's and 15's. Within the last three years, the womens team has also seen great success with being invited to the National Tournament. Because the club is unfunded through its school, it requires a plethora of money to keep it running smoothly. TRFC strives to keep its players safe mentally and physically. Both teams workout and practice twice a week in order to keep up with the physically demanding sport. Coach Billings bought scrum caps for the womens team due to the fact that women are more prone to head and neck injuries. Safety is of the utmost importance to the club. Both teams are, however, required to travel due to the fact that there are no teams to play in East Tennessee. Our teams have travelled to Clemson University, New York, Washington D.C, Las Vegas, and more.
