Week 1 of the 2022-23 rugby season is coming up this Saturday. Yes, once again, Saturday is a rugby day in BC.
The BC Bears won the Shield Final over Team Germany 21-7 to finish 12th in the tournament. Perhaps not the ranking they were expecting going into the tournament but as their tournament description states, “This programs goal is to provide a competition pathway for BC players to gain experience and showcase themselves towards National team selections.”
The BC Rugby season is just over 3 weeks away and we’ll take a look at some key dates and changes. The BCRU haven’t filled in their fixtures page yet so always check there for any last minute changes.

A good result for BC as they maintain their strong winning record at the U19 level. At least six of the BC players will continue on next weekend for Canada U20 as they host Zimbabwe, Chile and Uruguay.

BC Rugby is pleased to announce the BC Bears U23 Womens travelling roster that will face the Alberta Wolfpack in an exciting double-header at the upcoming 2022 Western Canada Championships in Kelowna.
The BCRU refers to the match as BC U19 vs Canada U19 Selects, others refer to it as BC U19 vs Canada U20. It’s likely a combination of U19/U20 players from the Canada U20 camp, which is taking place this week at Shawnigan, vs the BC U19 team. The match is taking place at 1pm today and will be streamed on the BCRU YouTube channel at youtube.com/user/bcrugbyunion
The appointment was announced earlier this month but according to that announcement from BCRU, Newson starts the job this week.
