Northside Rugby Club
We believe rugby is for everyone, no experience required! Hit the button below to fill out our contact form, and one of our team leaders will reach out to you shortly.
Who are we?
Northside is a men’s rugby club that will begin competition in Division 4 of the Chicago Area Rugby Football Union starting in the spring of 2025. Our home pitch is in Rogers Park, but we draw members from Uptown, Evanston, Edgewater, Albany Park and Skokie. We are proud of our close-knit, welcoming community and commitment to player development.
Why a goose?
As our mascot-less community looked for a way to recognize players who consistently attended our early touch sessions, our eyes landed on a classic, ceramic “porch goose”. As we decorated it in a custom scrum cap and jersey, the nickname seamlessly wove its way into the club’s identity.

No experience? No problem! Although we are a men’s league team, we prioritize building a community where everyone can be included. Touch sessions are co-ed, a great entry point for beginners or easygoing skills & fitness for experienced players.
