The Chicago Lions Rugby Football Club

A founding member of the USA Rugby Super League in 1997, the Chicago Lions Rugby Football Club is the premier rugby club in the Midwest, and has been a consistent powerhouse in the United States rugby scene since the club’s inception in 1964.

The Lions RFC is the only team in the Midwest to field fully competitive sides for Rugby Super League, Division I, and Men’s Club Sevens play. We have several teams within our organization, including an over-35 Grey Lions squad to keep our extensive network of players old and new active and involved. We have an elite, experienced coaching staff, led by Head Coach Marty Wiggins (former USA Eagles Assistant Coach) and assistant coach Chris McClellan, who also serves as our Director of Recruiting. We are fortunate to also have a full-service training staff partnership with Athletico at our disposal for training sessions and matches both home and away.

Since the Fall of 2008, the Chicago Lions RFC has called “Lions for Hope Field” at the corner of Roosevelt and Western our home for training, playing, and social events as a direct result of a long term partnership with Chicago Hope Academy. This partnership with a private, coed college prep school for urban youth creates unique sponsorship opportunities for the club and its supporters. The Lions are also spearheading the development and coaching efforts of the Chicago Hope Academy youth rugby club.

For further information about the club, our teams, the Hope Academy partnership, playing schedules & results, and sponsorship opportunities, please see the website for more details or contact club officers.
