Rob Brandau, former Club Rugby Coach and VP
“Running a club and winning championships is rewarding, but the men who play for Hillsdale Club Rugby are not enamored by the trophies and or gripped by the desire to hold club leaderships positions that look nice on a resume. No, they play because they love the sport and they love to test their metal in the crucible of competition. Nothing bonds men together like rugby does.”
