Brujos Spring season kicks off in 2 weeks! Celtic 7's registration opens next week! Spring Practice!


The Superbowl foothills fat run is in the rear-view mirror (the Brujos raised $400 for the Agora crisis center, thanks to everyone who participated!), Spring practice is in full swing (more on that below), and that means it's almost time for the 2023 Spring Rio Grande Rugby Union season, which begins in two Saturdays on February 25th. Building off the momentum of their Fall 2022 season that saw the Brujos traveling to a bunch of tournaments, the NM Brujos will need that away game energy for a spring schedule that sees them playing 3 road games. Luckily the Brujos start off the season with two home games, against the ABQ Varks and the Santa Fe Santos respectively, before hitting the road for 3 straight. Their big road campaign starts off at El Paso on March 11th. Remember that the Brujos actually began the 2022/23 RGRU season last fall with a home win against El Paso, putting them 1 and 0 on this season already. They then finish the season with matches at the Varks and finally traveling to Scottsdale on April 15th to finish the season. As always the schedule is subject to change so stay tuned to the Brujos Rugby website Spring schedule page for up to the minute news, game locations, times and other info!

The New Mexico Brujos Spring season begins on February 25th and runs through April 15th, but practice has already begun and regular attendance is key to a successful Spring campaign.
