Welcome to the Home of the Panther Women's Rugby Team

The Panther Women’s Rugby Football Club, or P.W.R.F.C. for short, competes as a club sport on an intercollegiate level. We are part of the Mid-West Rugby Football Union (MWRFU), you can find us tearing up the Allegheny Rugby Union (ARU) at the Division II level more specifically. We welcome any female from Pitt and the local colleges to come out and give it a shot!

Team Sexxxy, as we have so correctly been referred to as, has been a club since 2002 and we are still going strong! What we’ve learned over the years… Rugby is awesome, hands down! Teamwork, Communication, and Fitness are the three most important components of our beloved sport! Anyone can learn how to play; in fact many of us had never touched a rugby ball a day in our life before college! Some of the coolest people you will ever meet play rugby! And finally, there is never a joke too inappropriate on the rugby pitch!

So whether you came out of the womb tackling, scoring tries, and kicking ass, or if you have no idea of what rugby even is… COME ON OUT AND GIVE IT A GO! Our practice times are located under the practice link and we are usually the ones having a blast, tearing up the Cathedral Lawn in our cut-offs and cleats! No experience is necessary all you have to do is be willing to learn, and excited to play!!! For more information or to join the email list you can email our secretary Kirsten Andrews (kla35@pitt.edu), and check out our site to learn more about us!
