Club Location, Dues, Practice
and Match Times
The Iowa Fall Rugby Football Club is located on Georgetown Road in Iowa Falls, Iowa.
Please feel free to contact Jim Gillespie to schedule a match and he will be happy to
email or fax you a map to the club facilities.
Club dues are a low $100 per year or $50 per season. CIPP dues are additional
to the club dues. Where else can you find over 20 weekends of entertainment and fun
a year for this price. Besides you can belong to a club with facilities like no other in
the Midwest! Just ask anyone who has ever played in Iowa Falls and they will
tell you how much fun they had visiting the "Scenic City".
Coach Jim Murra holds practices every Tuesday and Thursday
evenings. Times vary due to daylight hours. Early Spring we start the first
week of February with Tuesday evenings and Sunday afternoons in the Iowa Falls Red Bull
Armory. We move outside as the weather permits to the club facilities.
Matches are scheduled for Saturdays and Sundays. Away games we will usually provide
low cost, enjoyable transportation on the Iowa Falls Rugby Club Magic Bus.
The original facility was a ramshackle homestead on seven acres along Georgetown road adjoining the south edge of Iowa Falls. Private funds and volunteer labor are helping to transform the area into the finest rugby facilities in the nation. Although the work we set out to do is not complete. Check out the Foundation information page listed below and you will see the master plan of the work we have yet to accomplish. Be sure to see the inside of the renovated clubhouse.
The photo here is of the 30 acre addition that was purchased in 1993 by the Iowa Falls Rugby Football Club Foundation. The grounds were leveled and seeded for the purpose of adding additional fields and open space. We currently maintain 5 Rugby fields and 1 Soccer field ready for play at a minutes notice. Nowhere in the United States will you find a facility like those in Iowa Falls Iowa. Shower facilities and camping areas have been added since 1993. Future expansion plans include baseball/softball diamonds, lighted fields for night games and tournaments and permanant concession facilities. We are always seeking donations and funding to continue our dreams of maintaining the finest rugby facilities in the Midwest.
