Practice is Tuesday and Thursday from 7:15 PM until 9:00 PM at Oakton High School. Please let Lauren or one of your other captains know if you will NOT be able to make practices on any particular night. It makes planning much easier!

via the Orange line, Vienna station. Head up toward
the track and then turn right - head towards the baseball
fields.
Things to do if you're planning on playing 15s:
- CIPP with USA Rugby by September 1.
To CIPP means to register with the national governing board for the sport - USA rugby. To do so, go to USA Rugby Web Site and click on "membership" on the lefthand scroll bar. Follow the steps to register for the 2009-2010 year (9/1 - 9/1). Make sure that on the drop-down menu for team names, you register with Northern Virginia WOMENS Rugby Club, not just Northern Virginia Rugby Club - that's the men's team! :) You must be CIPPed in order to play a game with NOVA (or any team). Make sure you print out a waiver to give to Alpine at practice sometime in the near future. You're not fully CIPPed until you do!
- Get on the team email list to get all the vital and updated info!
- If you don't have a Yahoo ID/screen name, get one.
- Once you have a Yahoo ID/ screen name...link your Yahoo ID to your email address so that you can access the features of the NoVA WRFC YahooGroups databases (see the email lists page).
- Fill in your availability for matches this season...
- Click "Databases" in the left column of the main YahooGroups page.
- Choose a match availability database (remember to complete both), click "Add Record" and enter your info.
Practice/Selections Policy for Spring 2010
The coaches and captains have come up with a policy for determining how selections are made. We have tried to make the selections criteria much more transparent so that from match to match, each player should have an idea of why or why not they were selected for a given position.
If you have any questions about the new policy, you can direct them to any of the coaches or captains.
Inclement Weather
Always check your email and the hotline (703-715-6888) for the latest changes/updates to match and practice locations/times, especially if conditions are or have been wet.
Also, choose a FITNESS plan and do the work; show respect for yourself and your teammates by giving it your all!
