BC High School Rugby – April 2024
BC High School Rugby Season in BC: How to Get Your Match Published on BCRN
The BC High School Rugby season is in full swing but unfortunately, unlike before, there’s not a central collection point for scores and matches. The bcssru.com used to provide that info but BC School Sports has taken over all sports and they don’t publish upcoming matches or results. They provide Provincials information but that’s about it. They actually started doing a ranking for Ultimate Frisbee, but haven’t started one for rugby yet. You may want to contact them to find out why. Their Twitter account is @BCSchoolSports
