RUGBY IS FOR EVERYONE

No prior experience necessary! There’s a team for every age and stage!


Welcome to the Edmonton Rugby Union (ERU), your gateway to club rugby in Edmonton and Northern Alberta. With fifteen clubs and over 50 teams, we offer a welcoming community where adults, teens and children can connect, compete, and thrive!

Rugby is perfect for all ages and skill levels. If you’re looking to get fit, meet new friends, or even chase your dream of playing at a higher level, there’s a team for you here. Our clubs cater to everyone—from competitive players to those who just want to have fun and enjoy the game.

The rugby season runs from the first week of May through mid to late September. Most clubs begin outdoor training in April, but if you’re new to the sport, many offer indoor sessions starting as early as January. This is a great way to learn the basics in a friendly, supportive atmosphere.

At the ERU, we embrace the values of Integrity, Passion, Solidarity, Discipline, and Respect. These principles create an inclusive environment where everyone can feel at home, regardless of experience.

Join us today! Sign up now and become part of the rugby community!
