About the Northern Colorado Flamingos:
The Fort Collins Flamingos Rugby Club was established in 1978 by a group of Colorado State graduates. Don't ask how we came up with the Flamingo as our mascot, except that the original membership included a warped, transplanted Californian with a strange sense of humor.

The current membership includes 30 "active" members (who put the boots on every Saturday) and another 37 social members (expect them at the party after the game). A large majority of the members are college graduates working in a broad spectrum of skilled professions. Athletic abilities range from ex-collegiate football and rugby players to any newcomer willing to learn the game from scratch. The key is the will to train hard and a love of team sports. Most of our members are in their late 20's but ages vary from 18-45. As a truly international sport, rugby brings together many diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Our club is enriched by a number of international players from England, Scotland, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. In the community, we proudly sponsor and provide coaches to the Fort Collins Youth Rugby program. Fort Collins finished first in the state 1994-1996 and 4th, 5th, and 6th in the nation respectively. The bottom line is that through the competition and camaraderie of our club, rugby has become more than just a game, Rugby is a Way of Life!

As an extremely young club relative to the other clubs around the country, we are proud of the Flamingos progress to date. Our vision for the future in terms of members, competitiveness, and community impact, however, stretches far beyond where we are today. A club membership of 50 active players, a regional and national championship, and representative players on the national team are just a few of our goals. In addition, long term goals include plans for our own pitch and clubhouse similar to the clubs of Europe and a youth program that extends into the elementary schools. Just as important as our competitive and social success, however is our desire to have a positive impact on our community. Community outreach is an integral part of the Flamingo agenda. These goals won't be accomplished without commitment and resources.
