PAYING YOUR DUES & GETTING REGISTERED WITH USA RUGBY

As you know, running a rugby team isn't cheap. We need to employ a coaching staff, rent practice facilities, buy jerseys and equipment, hire referees, and pay for drinkups and socials for home matches.

That's whyw e have to assess dues of $125 per season. (There is a spring season and a fall season, for a total of $250 per year per player).

You can always bring a check or cash to any of our practices, or you can now pay online using your Visa or MasterCard. Click this button to pay the full $125 securely with PayPal (you don't need to have a PayPal account):

CIPP

In addition, USA Rugby requires all active members to register with CIPP in order to participate in organized rugby events (CIPP stands for Club and Individual Participation Program). CIPP dues are $45 per calendar year, and you can either register on your own, or give us a check for $45 and we'll register you. CIPP registration, as of Fall 2011, also includes basic medical insurance which covers you during tournaments, practices, matches, and while travelling to and from these officially sanctioned events. To check your CIPP status or to register online, visit the USA Rugby Registration Site, login or create a new account, and follow the posted instructions.
