Player Testimonials

  • I was looking to join a rugby team after watching the Olympics and realized I wanted to get back into team sports for fun, to learn something new, and for a sense of community. I found all that and more when I joined Fort Miami! It was intimidating to dive into a new sport, but I felt at home at the first practice. Fort Miami is truly incredible because everyone, from rookies to vets, board members and coaches, pours so much love and effort into everything we do.
