The Syracuse Silver Hawks have been around since 2005 and are committed to building a top-notch program. We compete against teams from Buffalo, Rochester, Grand Island, Corning and Albany.  We also try to schedule a scrimmage against a down state team.  Last year, we had three Upstate NY All-Stars.  And, we are sending five kids to France this summer to train in a rugby camp there.  The flyer also mentions our new college scholarship program.

We practice three days a week - usually from 500-630 pm or 530-700 pm.  We are currently zeroing in on practice locations.  It is possible that we will practice at the Carrier Dome from mid-March to mid/late-April.  Then we will hit the fields at O'Connor Park, located at the corner of Velasko Road and Onondaga Boulevard (across from Western Lights Plaza)  This has been our home field for years.

All of our coaches are USA Rugby certified and we teach safe, rugby tackling.  This is a great sport for all wrestling athletes.  Our wrestling connection has been strong over the years.  Notable recent Silverbacks include Tyriq Block from Solvay - a section 3 champion wrestler.
