OUR KIDS review of Crusaders Rugby Club
Loving the sport of rugby is the only prerequisite for joining “The Cru”---the Crusaders Rugby Club. It is one of the largest in North America with a huge community of all ages of players. As a non-profit, volunteer-based organization, the club is very family oriented and everyone involved is very passionate about sport and about rugby in general. Their outdoor facilities are amazing, with 28 acres of tree-lined space for playing. While their programs and camps are there to teach kids the game and sportsmanship, there’s so much more to it than just that. Teamwork, trust, self confidence, and courage are among the other important skills that kids learn while at The Cru. Many players from this club go on to play professionally and they are supported the entire way. All counselors and coaches are experienced long-standing members of the clubs, who often grew up here as well. This is a very well put together organization.

Director's Message
The Crusaders Rugby Club is one of the largest rugby clubs in North America, based in eastern Oakville. Our club, often referred to as The Cru or the Oakville Crusaders, is a community of more than 700 playing members from age 4 to 74. We have more than 500 girls and boys under 18 playing rugby in its various forms within the club. The club’s broader community of alumni, non-playing members and supporters is in the region of 3,500 people. The Crusaders Rugby Club is a non-profit, volunteer-based, inclusive and family-oriented club to which our board directors, coaches, alumni, parents and players donate significant amounts of their time.
In 2019, we started our camps program initially as a way to provide members' kids some summer fun. The camps have blossomed into summer-long programming, attracting more than 300 boys and girls from across the GTA throughout the summer. The camps are founded on the simple philosophy that sport is supposed to be fun and engaging for children. Our camps are all outdoors in our 28 acre park-like facility in Oakville and while rugby-oriented, they're much more than just that: they're multi-activity/multi-sport, about teamwork, making friends, trust, self-confidence, skill development, athletic development, values, enthusiasm, courage, active participation and, yes, abundant fun and laughs.
Our counsellors are university-aged club club members who have been members of the club from the age of 8 or younger, and played or continue to play rugby at national or provincial levels. Their passion for rugby, sport and activity will infect your children, and their love of fun will have your child jumping out of bed in the morning, every morning, to get to camp!
We encourage you to read our camp reviews and reach out to us at any time to discuss camp options.
Staff and Counsellors
The coaching staff at the Crusaders Rugby Club are all volunteers. Many have played rugby as children, and others have recently been introduced to the sport. Crusaders coaches are committed to the holistic, healthy and supportive development of our players while imparting and upholding the core values of the sport – it's as much a part of our club’s culture as it is of the sport as a whole. We promote this "rugbyness", a unique culture in sport – one steeped in history, built on respect, teamwork and camaraderie through our camps. The Summer Camps are lead by university-age Counsellors who have played high-level rugby and have been with the club for many years.
