Welcome to the 2027 Brunswick Valkyries Spring 15s Season!
Whether you're a returning Valkyrie ready to get back on the pitch or a new player joining us for the first time, we're excited to have you as part of the team. Before you can officially take the field, there are a few important steps that every player must complete.
Steps 1-3 below are required to fully register with the Brunswick Valkyries for the Spring 15s season. Please complete each step carefully and make sure all required information and forms are submitted.
- CLUB DUES
$100 -- due by March 1st
Payments can be made through the preferred method of Venmo (@Brunswick-GirlsRugby), or can be via check written out to Brunswick Girls Rugby. If for any reason you are unable to make a payment, reach out to a coach as soon as possible. We will never turn a player away due to money.
- RUGBY OHIO REGISTRATION
$55+ total -- $55 (subject to change) goes to Rugby Ohio (additional $46 to US Rugby if you didn't play Fall 7s)
This registration is separate from club dues, and is required by the State Association in order to play. Click the link below to be redirected to the Rugby Ohio log-in through Rugby Xplorer.

For "Role", select Player. For "Registration Type", select High School Spring Girls. Lastly, for "Duration" select Season.

- FAN MERCH/GEAR STORE
Fan gear can be purchased at either World Rugby Shop or through the Club Shop.
All fan gear bought through the Club Shop is made by Audra Hudson (alumni parent), and she can messaged directly on Facebook or via text at 440-228-3090. Please note that all athlete gear (warm-up jackets, shorts, socks, etc.) mentioned above are ONLY purchased through the Brunswick Valkyries Girls Rugby Club, NOT World Rugby Shop.
- ATHLETE EXPECTATIONS
-- Each athlete is responsible for brining their own gear to each practice and game. A mouth guard, shoes/cleats (depending on practice location), water bottle, and warm/dry clothes are a MUST to every practice. Leggings, yoga pants, or other spandex garments are NOT to be worn as a primary layer. These items are permitted as undergarments only. Loose fitting tank tops and cutoff clothing is also not permitted. All clothing must be durable and fitting. Rugby is a contact sport that can damage or destroy flimsy or stretchy clothing. EXPECT dirt, grass, and mud stains.
-- All athletes are required to wear game socks, shorts, warm-up shirt, and warm-up jacket to every game. Jerseys will be passed out and returned on each game day. Be sure to bring a change of clothes for after each game.
Once registration is complete, it's time to trade the paperwork for the pitch. Show up ready to work hard, learn, compete, and support your teammates. Spring 15s is what we are known for, and every practice is an opportunity to become a better player and a stronger team. New or returning, you're now part of the Valkyries family.
Let's get to work. Let's get better. Let's play Valkyries rugby.
Victory or Valhalla!
