Beantown is immensely excited to return to the WPL. The team is ready and able to face higher levels of competition and represent the northeast on a larger stage. We could not have taken this step without the enthusiasm and support of our community near and far. Thank you for supporting Beantown RFC. Go Forward, Support!

Everybody Fights Fundraiser Success!

Beantown would like to thank Everybody Fights for hosting an outstanding fundraiser on Tuesday, March 7. We sold all 70 tickets and enjoyed an excellent workout thanks to the trainers at EBF. Beantown could not exist as we know it without events like this; fundraising supports everything from field space for practice and games to coaching staff and referee costs.

If you couldn’t make it to this event, you can donate to the team at any point this spring as we fight to the division 1 national championship in Denver, CO. We have several stops along the way; our spring schedule is available here.

We’d also like to thank our home bar, Cathedral Station, for the post-workout social! No workout would be complete without snacks after.
