For the second year
USA Sevens Rugby has partnered with schools in
Clark County School District for the Adopt-a-Country program. Last year over
14,000 kids participated, many of whom saw rugby for the first time in the weeks leading up to the tournament.
During the Adopt-a-Country program the
USA Rugby team visited Glen Taylor Elementary School. The enthusiasm for this event was contagious. Chants of "
USA" were ringing through the halls as players and students alike prepared to make our country proud.
In preparation for their teams arrival, students across the
Clark County School District were busy studying the geography, culture, and people of their "Adopted Nation." But this was not your typical lesson as students were engaged by creative activities, including t-shirt design and essay contests.
