In Belmont, Rugby As It Was Meant To Be

BELMONT, MA - APRIL 2: Belmont head coach Kate McCabe is pictured at a rugby practice session at Belmont High School in Belmont, MA on April 2, 2018. When Greg Bruce first began working as a special education teacher at Belmont High in 2007, he was juggling his newfound responsibilities with a career as a professional rugby player. But when students kept imploring him to share his experience by opening a rugby club, he eventually acquiesced under the premise that the club would be student-led. What began as a small after-school activity involving 21 players quickly evolved into the Belmont Rugby Association, one of the most cohesive rugby programs in the region.
