Mad River Stowe Rugby Football Club

Mad River Stowe RFC

You Ain't Seen Nothing Like the Old Mad River!

Mad River - Stowe Rugby Football CLub

Established in 1972, Mad River - Stowe RFC is a mens and womens rugby club based in the quintessential New England town of Stowe, Vermont.  Over the next 5 decades the club has competed in the US and Quebec and is currently competing in the New England Rugby Football Union (NERFU) 4th Division.  

If you've played with us or against us you'll already know that while we leave it all on the field, "rugby" means much more than just a game to us.  We take pride in hosting a good jolly-up at the pitch or with one of our local sponsors. Many players have joined our club over the other Vermont rugby options because we're the hardest working club and also offer the best camaraderie.

If you’ve never played rugby before and are looking for someone to show you the ropes, or if you just moved to the area and are looking to dust off your boots, contact us today! We accept players of all types, regardless of skill level or experience. We have trainings every Thursday, 6pm at the DAC Rowe Fields • 33 N Main St, Waterbury Village Historic District, VT 05676 • from May - November. You can find our full schedule here!
