  3rd Annual Boys U-19 All Star Challenge Cup, Baltimore
The EPRU All-Stars were part of this prestigious All Star Challenge Cup. With good numbers during the last few practice sessions the EPRU sent 2 teams to compete against teams from Florida, Texas, Minnesota, South Carolina, Met New York, Connecticut and Upstate New York .06/23/07 - 06/24/07

The younger EPRU teams won two games, tied one game against Florida and played some competitive rugby against teams that all had first year collegiate players on their rosters. The players had a great time and experienced some good rugby. The EPRU team, coaches and parents were invited by one of the local Potomac Rugby Union medical staff liaison (Dr. Joe), owner of a local gourmet restaurant for an all you can eat Italian feast.
Joe was a great host and the kids, parents and coach’s enjoyed the atmosphere that included additional celebrations that were happening at the same time, the players joined forces with another event and the young ladies were impressed with the good nature of our EPRU players.
