We (The Board) are working hard on getting an official start date to get us all on the pitch soon. The COVID-19 restrictions have been changing quite rapidly and in conjunction with local rules and USA Rugby we will have a start date very soon so keep an eye on your emails and social media.

In the meantime please take a few moments to fill out our COVID-19 Questioner and our Symptom Checker. These are both import parts of our return to play plan and you NEED to have them both filled out before you show up to the pitch. Also do not forget to register with USA Rugby.

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost

the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes, a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring

ABOUT

Welcome to Chicago Riot Rugby, a social athletic club founded in 2007 by a group of former University of Illinois at Chicago Rugby players. This club was formed to embrace the social aspects of the sport, along with offering a competitive atmosphere to contend on the rugby pitch. Chicago Riot Rugby was formally accepted into CARFU to compete in DIII league starting in the Fall 2008 season. The Riot have quickly developed into one of the Midwest's top teams. Over the past several years the team has gotten closer and closer to the National Championship.

The Chicago Riot competes in both DIII and DIV of the Chicago Area Rugby Football Union.
