2012 Danville Rugby Sevens Academy

Welcome to the sophomore season of Danville Rugby Sevens!  Olympic Rugby will again be instructed by Rugby Academy and Danville Oaks Varsity Coaches Jon Straka and Roy Helu Sr. Special guest instructors will be featured throughout the season.

An expansion of NCYRA’s Sevens series has changed last summer’s camp series into an entire season, one in which a champion will be crowned based upon cumulative points from each separate event.  Last summer, Danville Rugby Sevens featured one of the top teams in California and was one of the only clubs to field multiple sides in tournament play. 

The season was highlighted by posting a 2-0-1 record in the Gold division at the second tournament of the Sacramento Valley Summer Sevens Series, recording a draw against the Sacramento Islanders and wins over Dixon and previously undefeated Motley, an All-Star team out of Sacramento.  At the last Palo Alto Sevens tournament, Danville recorded a victory over a strong East Palo Alto team to finish the summer on a high note.

Danville Rugby Sevens is structured to allow players and their families to go on vacation and come back without penalty.  Our goal is that every weekend we will still be able to field at least one side at every age level.

Practice Tuesdays and Thursdays June 5^th – July 26^th 4:30-6:30 at San Ramon Valley High School’s soccer field in Danville.
