In February of 2012, the Milwaukee Westside Harlequins and many of the active players from the Milwaukee Rugby Football Club set out to do something big — to elevate the top-tier rugby played in this state.
Thus began a grand experiment, a great collaboration that hoped to unite the top rugby clubs in the greater Milwaukee region into a super club that could compete at the highest level.
After 18 months, we are happy to report that the experiment has been a success beyond our expectations as the new club, the Milwaukee Barbarians, has been in contention for the National championship 2 seasons running.
In addition, tomorrow we kick off our first match at our new venue — Zablocki Park — in South Milwaukee.
