SoCal Griffins
About
The Southern California Rugby Football Union (SCRFU) was established in 1937 by Frankenstein actor himself Boris Karloff in Los Angeles California. The Griffins have been the All Star team for the union dating back to 1954. The Griffins Men and Womens program (15’s and 7’s) have always been made up of the best players from SoCal teams. The Griffins have selected many players that have gone to play professionally both state side and overseas. Current Eagles Mikey Teo, Joe Taufete’e are both Griffin alumni. The Griffins extend from youth to U23 and seniors. Some Griffins sides have played overseas in tournaments and others have welcomed International teams to serve as testing grounds before international series. All staff are hand selected from SoCal teams both men and women. This will be the 4th straight year the Griffins have the privilege of playing in Rugby Town 7’s!

Tiger Rugby
About
Tiger Rugby started as a touring team in 2007, with the intention of exposing young, up and coming players to the highest level of competition at international tournaments. Over the years, we noticed that our approach to the game struck a transcending chord regardless of which language was being spoken. Tiger players have always been selected as much by who they are as people, as their ability to play on the field. Tiger has and intends to continue to develop players who are true ambassadors for the game. Our family has grown to include rugby 7s greats from South Africa, England, Wales, Kenya and New Zealand, as well as the more than 50 U.S Eagles and many Olympians that have proudly worn the Tiger jersey.
