Past Surf n' Turf 7's
In the past years, Surf n' Turf was the first-ever all-women's bracket featured within the Southern California Rugby Football Union (SCRFU), marking a significant milestone in promoting female participation in the sport. This groundbreaking initiative not only showcased the talent and competitiveness of women in rugby but also served as a platform for elevating the profile of women's sports in the region.
Additionally, in 2024 Surf n' Turf has proudly hosted the U.S. Armed Forces Women's Rugby 7s Championships, an event that brings together elite players from across the nation representing the branches of the military.
This tournament has attracted a diverse array of teams that are not typically seen at Southern California 7's tournaments. The inclusion of these teams creates a new opportunity where players can experience high-level competition against opponents they may only encounter at nationals. This opportunity is invaluable for 7's teams looking to gauge their skills and performance against some of the best in the country.
Inspiration and Community
By creating an environment that fosters competition and camaraderie, the San Diego Surfers aim to inspire more women to engage in the sport and showcase the incredible talent within the women's rugby community. The tournament promises to be an all-day event filled with excitement, featuring thrilling matches, a variety of food options, merchandise stalls, and engaging games that will keep attendees entertained throughout the day.
