Rocky Mountain Rugby Statement on Values

Rocky Mountain Rugby embraces rugby’s core values and is committed to protecting our beautiful diversity in the promotion of a sport which is truly a ‘game for all.’
 
While Rocky Mountain Rugby will not publicly comment on specific legal matters that occur outside the playing and administration of the game, we take seriously any matter that risks putting the game into disrepute. Any member who brings the game into disrepute by individual or collective action is subject to a disciplinary hearing.
 
Please note that all members that wish to report potential SafeSport violations may do so through USA Rugby’s SafeSport site, which is stickied to the front of Rocky Mountain Rugby’s website.
 
Rocky Mountain Rugby remains committed to World Rugby’s Core Values, which include:

Integrity: Integrity is central to the fabric of the game and is generated through honesty and fair play.
 
Passion: Rugby people have a passionate enthusiasm for the game. Rugby generates excitement, emotional attachment and a sense of belonging to the global rugby family.
 
Solidarity: Rugby provides a unifying spirit that leads to life-long friendships, camaraderie, teamwork and loyalty which transcends cultural, geographic, political and religious differences.
 
Discipline: Discipline is an integral part of the game both on and off the field and is reflected through adherence to the laws, the
regulations and rugby’s core values.
 
Respect: Respect for team-mates, opponents, match officials and those involved in the game is paramount.

Additionally, Rocky Mountain Rugby is committed to the idea of a ‘Game for All’, in that:

Rocky Mountain Rugby is proud to serve a diverse membership of players, coaches, officials, and fans. As such, Rocky Mountain Rugby is committed to creating and promoting a culture of inclusion and mutual respect, regardless of race, color, creed, national origin, religious beliefs, sex, age, gender identity, disability, or sexual orientation.

We celebrate the differences that make our members unique and special and do not tolerate discrimination, bullying, or exclusion in any form.

Rocky Mountain Rugby expects its leadership, coaches, officials, teams, players, administrators, and fans to promote a culture of acceptance and support through their actions and through the recruitment of members without regard to sex, race, physical disability, or sexual orientation.

Through our commitment to diversity and mutual respect, we believe that the sport of rugby will continue to grow and become a powerful voice of change in the world of sport.
