Nash Bash - A Nashville Rugby Tradition
History
For nearly four decades, rugby clubs from all across North America have traveled to Nashville for this extraordinary event. Held in March each year, the Bash continues to provide youth (started in '04), college, men's and women's teams with a high quality, entertaining weekend of rugby to kick off the Spring season. Each year, over 100 teams enjoy good running rugby, festive music and the great camaraderie that has come to define the Nash Bash. We are expecting nothing less this year!
Men and Women's Competition
The women's tournament is one of the best in the country, and again offers teams a chance to play a number of clubs from distant geographic locations. We have both a club and a college division with prizes awarded to the top finishers. Nash Bash provides an excellent opportunity for clubs in cooler climates to get in some warm-up games before the start of the season, and teams from warmer parts the chance to size up possible playoff competition.
On the men's side, the Bash's festival format pits teams of similar ability but different geographic regions together to create matches that would not occur during regular season play. Every side plays one game each day, ensuring that all matches are of the highest quality.
Nash Bash U19
The U19 Nash Bash provides the chance for Middle School and High School rugby teams to dust off the cobwebs and prepare for the upcoming Spring season with three games in a friendly format. We separate the U-19 Bash into three brackets: Middle School; U-19 Girls Division; and U-19 Boys Division (A & B teams).
