Upcoming Games

Rams Women

Welcome to the home page of the Calgary Rams Senior Women's team! The Rams are looking to run with a Div 1 team as well as a Prem Division team (both 18+). Our goal for the upcoming season is to increase our fitness and skill levels which we intend to do with our off season training at Stenia Health and High Performance, and secure our narrowly missed 1st place title from 2011. We know how to have fun on and off the field, being the most social club in Calgary!

LOYALTY * INTENSITY * GRIT

The Rams Women's team started their 2011 season in January with indoor training. After 15 weeks of indoor training led by two phenomenal coaches, the Rams were ready to head outdoors and start their official 2011 outdoor season. Passion, commitment, athleticism and sheer determination to be the best, laid the foundation for one of the most successful and fulfilling seasons the Rams Women have ever had to date.

It started with the membership. The team had about 10 returning players and 30 new players, creating an army of 40 women who registered for the 2011 season! We were happy to welcome players from other countries, provinces and clubs, with various skills and rugby experience.

It continued with the coaching. Our coaches pushed us physically, mentally and emotionally both on and off the pitch. We trained in sun, rain, hail and all types of storms without complaining. We wanted it and our coaches believed in us.

It continued and ended with the team. The team played their hearts out and left everything they had on the pitch. After 13 games (11 regular season and 2 playoff), the Rams Women finished with 11 wins, 1 loss, and 1 tie. Despite a loss by 1 point in the Southern Alberta final match, the Rams held their heads high and focused on their accomplishments and growth since the 2010 season. With a staggering 446 points for and a minor 103 points against in the 2011, the Rams look forward to more success and fun in 2012 season!

The Rams boast an extremely diverse team ranging from high school aged girls to - well let's just say "mature" women with kids of all ages. Whether you are a brand new player or have ten years playing experience, we will welcome you with open arms and look forward to either showing you the ropes or learning from your experience.

WANT TO PLAY?
All you need to play is workout clothes (depending on the weather and training location), running shoes, and a water bottle. Once you've fallen in love with rugby, you'll eventually need some cleats and a mouth guard. As a new registered player with the Calgary Rams, you will receive rugby shorts, socks and a polo shirt.

If you would like to join us for our indoor training which runs from January until the end of April, please check out our website for more details (2012 indoor training schedule TBD). If you have any questions or are interested in joining our team and registering as a player, please contact our VP Women at VPWomen@CalgaryRamsRugby.com
