History[edit]
Columbia Touch Rugby Association, Maryland (CTRAMD) started in 1997, as a rag tag group of ex-rugby players and players with absolutely no rugby experience whatsoever. Because Touch Rugby is a sport in which men and women can compete side by side, CTRAMD has always had a decent mix of male and female players. In fact, well of 500 players have joined in over the past 11+ years.
CTRAMDs home field was on Fort George G. Meade, until 2004 when they moved locations to the fields near the East Columbia Library in Columbia, Maryland (6600 Cradlerock Way -- See map). Over time, various fields in the East Columbia Library and Dasher Green Elementary School (6700 Cradlerock Way -- See map) have been used.
Current Status[edit]
CTRAMD is still very active. Check out the CTRAMD website. Recently CTRAMD has seen a welcomed increase in new recruits. Pickup games are played every Saturday morning, year around (weather permitting). Our current start time is at 9:00 a.m., and we play at our Dasher Green Elementary School location (See map).
How To Participate[edit]
The CTRAMD maintains a Google group through which news and Touch run status is provided. If you'd like to participate in any of the CTRAMD pickup games, or other events they may be hosting/participating in, you may join the group by visiting their CTRAMD Google Group Page.
Upcoming Events[edit]
A Touch Rugby Tournament, sponsored in part by the CTRAMD group, is scheduled for Saturday, June 27. Kickoff is at 9:00 a.m. Check out the CTRAMD website for details as they develop.
