Erie PONY Cup

The 3rd Annual PONY Cup: The Finest High School Rugby in the Tri-State Area!

For the last couple of years now, rugby clubs from Pa, Ohio, and NY (PONY) have traveled to Erie for this unique High School Rugby event. Held the Sunday after Easter, the PONY Cup continues to provide both boys’ and girls' teams with a high quality, entertaining day of rugby. In 2006, teams enjoyed the exceptional weather, great competition, and great pitches at Fairview’s Pleasant Ridge Park. We are expecting nothing less on April 15, 2007, the date of this year’s tournament.

The PONY cup festival format pits teams of similar ability but different geographic regions together to create matches that would not occur during regular season play. Every side plays two games, insuring that all matches are of the highest quality. Our scheduling committee prides itself on placing teams in evenly matched, competitive games. PONY Cup provides an excellent opportunity for clubs to test their skills in preparation for their season. The referree corp assembled will be top notch as always, with many of the highest level refs in the region calling the games.

Food and Drink will be provided to the participants at $5 per player.  Refreshments will be available to the spectators at a nominal fee. That’s it!  Erie Rugby’s philosophy is to provide a terrific tournament at a revenue neutral cost.We feel the rewards of hosting a day of friendly competition for our rugby players of the future is worth more than money!

Make plans to attend the PONY Cup tournament and find out why this corner of Pennsylvania is a great meeting place for Rugby.

Please contact The Erie Rugby Club to let us know the level of competition you desire. Deadline for registration will be Friday March 16, 2007.
