Wrapping up Prom Dress Rugby week
Perhaps you are getting bored of viewing photos of SOU’s Women’s Rugby Team playing in prom dresses? I have more, many more photos I could show you in fact. But this will do it for Prom Dress Rugby week. Tomorrow we will resume with some different pics. As for me, I will be taking a train from New York to Boston tomorrow. I’ll be back in Ashland in about five days.
A stiff arm in a dress
Ever experienced a stiff arm to the face while wearing a prom dress?
Rugby line out in prom dresses
Similar to soccer, when the ball goes out of play in rugby someone must throw it in. Very different from soccer (football outside the USA), players are lifted up to tip the ball to their team (known as a “line-out” in rugby lingo). A line-out becomes a bit awkward when the players are wearing dresses and hands are going under them.

Southern Oregon University Women's Rugby - Prom Dress Game 2012
Like any prom, corsages were required at the Prom Dress Rugby game. Those with yellow corsages were on one team and those with pink ones were on the other.
Scoring at the prom
Having never watched or played rugby before, I’m learning the rules and scoring just from the two games I’ve attended this year. The maneuver pictured above is known as a “try” and is accomplished by grounding the ball beyond the goal line. Five points are the result. Prom dresses are optional.
Prom dress women’s rugby week
As mentioned previously, I’m out of town this week and next. If all went well I’ve been in New York City for a few hours at the time this post hits the internet.
For the next seven days, or so, I’ll post a photo (or sequence of photos showing a tackle from beginning to end) a day of the Prom Dress Rugby match that took place in Ashland on June 9. Enjoy!
