30 years and no home field

Several high schools were approached by Highland to use their facilities for this season. They were denied partly because they checked with the Utah State Board of Education on the validity of pretend students / import rugby players in 2005 being expelled from Olympus High School.

It's interesting that after 30 years and such a storied record of wins, that Highland has no permanent home field in Salt Lake. This year they are practicing in Millrace city park.

Unlike several relatively new local programs who in just a few years have secured permanent long term locations and amazing community and local school support.

Successful Recruiting trip 2010

Larry Gelwix had a successful recruiting trip to the South Pacific in 2010. Unconfirmed reports, that he recruited from 7 to 10 players from New Zealand and Samoa.

Also interesting rumors that the bulk of last years coaching staff have left the team for greener pastures and that he plans to shut down the club after this season.
