As part of the club’s year-round commitment to serving the community, expanding access to the sport, and creating opportunities for young athletes, the Seawolves are launching the Seawolves Youth Rugby Camp.
The summer camp will introduce kids ages 9–14 to rugby through movement, teamwork, skill development, and fun.

A Year-Round Commitment to Youth Rugby
The camp will take place August 10–13, 2026, at Starfire Sports in Tukwila.
The Seawolves Youth Rugby Camp reflects the club’s ongoing investment in being an active community partner throughout the year, not only when the professional team takes the field.
By creating more opportunities for youth and families to engage with rugby, the club continues its commitment to growing the game at the grassroots level and building lasting connections across the region.
The camp is designed as an entry-level rugby experience for elementary and middle school youth. All skill levels are welcome.

The four-day camp will run Monday through Thursday. Daily programming will take place from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Building the Next Generation of Rugby Players
Throughout the summer, the Seawolves will participate in regional rugby events, including Rugby Washington 7s tournaments and the King County Day of Play.
The club will also continue developing future youth programming with schools, rugby clubs, community centers, and local organizations.
For Seattle Seawolves Director of Rugby and Head Coach Allen Clarke, the camp represents an important step in helping young athletes connect with the game.
“Rugby has a unique ability to build confidence, resilience, and friendships that last a lifetime. Our Summer Camp is designed to help young people develop their skills in a fun, positive environment while experiencing the teamwork and values that make this game so special. We’re looking forward to welcoming the next generation of players to the Seawolves family.”
Allen Clarke, Director of Rugby and Head Coach
Scholarship Access for Local Families
The Seawolves are working with the Tukwila Community Center to support scholarship access for families in need.
A limited number of scholarship spots will be available to help reduce financial barriers and give more kids the opportunity to participate.
For Seattle Seawolves President JoAnne Anderson, expanding access to youth rugby remains a key part of the club’s community mission.
“Growing the game starts with access. The Seawolves Youth Rugby Camp reflects our commitment to youth development, community connection, and building a pathway for kids and families to experience rugby in a fun, inclusive, and meaningful way.”
