2021 Saratoga Cup – Kamloops

The Saratoga Cup is contested by teams from three regions: the Okanagan, the Kootenays, and the Interior. Contrary to the Island and Lower Mainland Rugby communities, these regions play their Rugby during the summer months on account of the challenging winter weather that they experience between Fall and Spring.

This adapted Rugby schedule does nothing to diminish the players’ passion and enthusiasm for the sport, with club roots and traditions running deep in these communities. To play in these leagues, players can travel 10 hours or more across to play other teams, which really shows their commitment and love for Rugby.
