Duke Grad Rugby and Football Club has started the 2016-2017 with the right foot.
A record number of students signed-up for club activities and showed up in the first two practices.
The first practices of the season focused on introductory exercises, an attempt to show the basic movements and also present some rules to the newcomers. According to DGRFC co-president Rylan Collins, the practice plan of this year prioritize team integration: "We want to have fun together playing the sport and practices will be the main tool to gather us regularly. Knowing our players well will pay off in the pitch during the games."
Duke Grad Rugby Club practices are held Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 6 to 8pm at Duke sports fields.
