New Faces, Same Welcome: Rugby in Johnson City is for Everyone

Yesterday's Johnson City rugby practice had 4 completely new faces.
Three were friends brought by current players to try rugby for the first time.
One was a brand new player joining the team.
What Happened at Practice
We ran basic drills—passing, catching, running plays. All four jumped right in.
By the end of practice, the three guests said they're coming back. The new player is already asking about the next game.
