CHURCHILL CUP 2008!!

Chicago to host 2008 Churchill Cup Finals June 2008!

To all rugby fans,

The following is from a press release issued by USA Rugby: "The Barclays Churchill Cup is the biggest international rugby tournament in North America and is an alliance tournament between the rugby unions of England, USA and Canada. Six teams will participate in this year’s Barclays Churchill Cup – USA, Canada, England Saxons, Scotland A, Ireland A and a final team to be confirmed shortly. In the USA leg of the Barclays Churchill Cup, the tournament will feature all six international teams in a triple header of final matches at Toyota Park in Bridgeview, Ill."

I, Eric Hipp, went to this tournament in Edmonton in June of 2006 and had a great time. The city was fabulous and the rugby fans colorful. This is a fantastic tournament and Toyota Park is a spectacular venue for this event. Clear you calendars for a weekend of great international rugby.
