Founded in 1973

The Chuckanut Bay Rugby Club was founded in 1973 after a group of recent Western Washington University graduates realized that they couldn't play as Western students.

They formed the club and established the Geoducks as the team mascot because of its history as the most dangerous bi-valve in the Pacific Northwest. The founders picked Columbia Blue (the traditional WWU color) and Orange (the traditional hue of a Chuckanut Bay sunset) as the team colors.

In 2003, the club incorporated as a 501c3 non-profit organization and focused on growing rugby for kids in addition to the adult teams.

Today

Our club offers rugby to athletes of all ages from Grades K - 8th, High School and Adult teams!

Our athletes have a direct pathway between our club and the High Performance structure with our Regional Performance Teams in the Pacific Northwest, in addition to our Seattle Professional Team and Team USA. 

Where We Play

Our Games are currently played on the weekends on the deWilde Rugby & Polo Fields in Ferndale, WA
