Alameda Rugby Home Opener

Join Alameda Rugby at Thompson Field on Saturday the 23rd for the 2013 home opener. The Alameda Riptide (girls team) kicks off at 1:30pm against local rivals Bishop O'Dowd. The Alameda Riptide will also be honoring one of their former teammates, Rachel Fisi'iahi, who passed away last week in a car accident. The Riptide are coming off 2 league losses and are looking to rebound in this home match.


Following the Riptide, the Alameda Boys will kickoff against South Valley at 3:30. The Alameda Islanders are coming off an away win against Silicon Valley and are looking to go 2-0 with a home victory. South Valley handily defeated the Islanders in the season finale last year, and the Islanders are out looking for revenge.


The event is FREE and the entire community of Alameda is invited to come out and support both teams in these league matchups.
