Seneca Sting Men’s Rugby Program Withdraws from 2021 OCAA season

Seneca has made the difficult decision not to operate a men’s rugby varsity program for the 2021 season and as a result has withdrawn from the 2021 OCAA fall schedule.  The sport of rugby as a whole, has been hit incredibly hard by COVID-19 and as a result, the pool of athletes to compete has been drastically reduced.  With less than two-weeks before the start of the season we do not have enough players or enough experienced rugby players to safely prepare and field a team and we will not field a team which would put our student athletes at risk. 

We will begin a review of our rugby program this fall in order to ensure that our student athletes have a positive, rewarding and safe experience in the future.
