Integrity
Integrity is central to the fabric of the game and is generated through honesty and fair play.
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.
The ERU proudly upholds the World Rugby Playing Charter and World Rugby values of Integrity, Passion, Solidarity, Discipline, and Respect. We stand by these core values and live them daily. These values enable all participants to immediately understand the character of the games and what makes rugby so distinctive as a sport that is played by people of all shapes and sizes.
