SYRACUSE SILVER HAWKS

Ready for rugby?

Join the only high school girls rugby team in Central New York - welcoming all players in Grades 9 through 12 for the Spring 2025 season. No experience necessary!

Practices provide an opportunity for new players to learn rugby and meet the team. All players will become confident in their tackling and ready to step on the field as a Silver Hawk.

The SPRING SEASON HAS STARTED!

Visit our calendar for details about practice, games, and event dates/times and locations. Our schedule typically includes two practices per week and some team bonding events. Sunday games start in April. Due to the weather, our practices alternate between indoor and outdoor locations at the start of the season and may be subject to change.

Gear for Practice: mouthguard, rugby shorts, cleats (sneakers when indoors), water, necessary layers or attire for the weather, and additional gear for special events

To connect with our coaches and join the team, email us at silverhawks@cnyrugby.com. We also invite you to read our FAQs to learn more about the sport and CNY Rugby.

SPONSOR THE SILVER HAWKS!

Rugby welcomes all athletes, regardless of their size, identity, or background, making it one of the most inclusive sports. However, our players are experiencing a participation barrier due to uniform limitations since the current sizing does not accommodate all players who wish to participate in this incredible sport.

Your donation will directly fund new, inclusive uniforms in a wider range of sizes and a more practical color, supporting the welcoming environment we provide for our teenage athletes and ensuring everyone can play with confidence and comfort.

Beyond uniforms, we offer various sponsorship levels to support team events, training resources, and community outreach, which are further described on the next page. Each level comes with its own benefits, such as recognition of your generosity on team materials and social media/website, allowing you to showcase your support for our mission. We would also welcome a partial sponsorship for any of the levels.

Donations are tax deductible through CNY Rugby. Payments can be made through PayPal (select “Youth/High School Rugby” and indicate your sponsorship level in the “special instructions” section) or by mailing a check (payable to CNY Rugby) to:

CNY Rugby
Attn: Silver Hawks
P.O. Box 44
Fayetteville, NY 13066

More information can be found in this sponsorship packet.

Note: 18% of each donation is used for CNY Rugby operational costs, which benefits all teams in the organization. If you would like to make a restricted donation, please let us know.
