Registration is open for the 2024 season for U12, 7th/8th Grade, and High School. The U9 group is full for 2024; email us at info@wolfhoundsyouthrugby.org to be put on a wait list for the U9s or to find out information about other clubs in the area who have U9 teams.
The cost for registration with the Wolfhounds is $200. Please note that our early bird registration period (due to uniform production lead times and vendor minimums) ended on March 17. Registration is open for U12, 7th/8th Grade, and High School. However, please be aware that getting your child's uniform may be delayed as there is a 4-8 week production lead time and there are vendor minimums. We still welcome latecomers, and the lack of a uniform won't prevent a kid from playing, but we want to be up front about this.
Additionally, there is an additional $31.19 (flag) or $56 (tackle) fee for registration with USA Rugby/the Massachusetts Youth Rugby Organization that must be completed as well. USA Rugby is also now requiring age verification for all registrants. (Age verification is a one time process.)
U9, U12 (through 6th grade), and U15-7th/8th grade teams:
Please note that the U9 group is full for 2024. Email us at info@wolfhoundsyouthrugby.org to be put on a wait list for the U9s or to find out information about other clubs in the area who have U9 teams.
The Spring 2023 season will run from Wednesday, April 24, 2024 to Sunday, June 23, 2024 for the U9, U12, and U15 teams.
The Spring 2023 season for the U9, U12, and U15 teams will be largely instructional with games in the second part of the season once players have learned the game basics. Games against other rugby clubs in the area may or may not be possible for the U9 teams; this is largely dependent upon whether other rugby clubs in the area are able to field U9 teams in 2024.
High school team:
The Spring 2023 season for the high school team will start at the beginning of June 2024 and run through July 28, 2024.

Unfortunately, we do not currently have a fall season. We start in the spring and play until the end of June or July depending on the age group and participant availability.
Kids age 6 through high school can play in the Hounds Youth Rugby program. Kids generally play in age groups of 6-9 (U9), 10-12 (U12 - through 6th grade), 13-15 (U15 - 7th/8th grades), and high school. When registering, you will be asked for your child's age so we can place your child onto the correct team.
Registration includes all practices and regular games in the season for which you are registering. The number of practices and games may vary based on weather, field conditions, and things outside of our control like Covid. (We will often play in rain, but we won't play when there is lightning.) Each player will receive a Wolfhounds jersey with registration.
Not at all. The kids on the Hounds Youth team come from all over the greater Boston area.
