­USA Rugby Girls U-19 National Team Head Coach Bryn Chivers announced Thursday the program’s 2006 schedule, which will culminate in a three-day camp followed by tests against Canada in conjunction with the scheduled USA Rugby All-Star Championships this June in Boulder.

USA RUGBY GIRLS U19 NATIONAL TEAM SELECTIONS ELIGIBILITY
All players born on or after January 1, 1987 are eligible for selection to the 2006 USA Rugby Girls U19 National Team. The goal of the program is increased participation from young college players. All college coaches are encouraged to recommend any talented freshmen that have established themselves in their team’s first side.

SELECTION
The USA Rugby coaching staff will attend four regional camps in April and these will be used as the primary selection venues for the 2006 USA Rugby Girls U19 Women’s National Team.
