History
The Grande Prairie Rugby Football Club has been bringing rugby to the Peace Region since 1982. Hosting several divisions and teams the club has a place for everyone!
In 2019, all three senior teams qualified for playoffs for the first time in club history. The Centaurs 2nd division team captured the provincial rugby title winning the 2nd division crown, and women’s Sirens placing 3rd in the ERU standings. The few years of Covid-19 and the lockdowns has affected Grande Prairie Rugby as any other sports team, but we came out strong in 2022. The women’s team competed in the premier division for the first time in history. Even though the men had to drop down to one team in 2022 they had an impressive season and placed second in 2nd division.
