Rugby Ontario Congratulates Mo Chaudhry On Olympic Selection
Rugby Ontario is delighted to congratulate local referee Talal (Moe) Chaudhry on his selection in the squad of 23 match officials that will take charge of the rugby sevens competitions at the Olympic Games Paris 2024 in France from 24-30 July.
Chaudhry, a native of Mississauga, Ont., has worked as both referee and assistant referee on the international front as well as the HSBC SVNS, formerly known as the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series. He also officiates Major League Rugby games as well as Ontario club and university rugby.
Rugby Ontario CEO Myles Spencer said: “We are proud that Moe has been selected to referee at the highest level of the sevens game and arguably the biggest sporting event of all, the Olympic Games. His selection is well deserved and is a testament to his hard work and dedication over many years, starting on the rugby fields of this province. On behalf of the Rugby Ontario Board, our Match Officials Committee, RO staff and everyone involved in this great game across the province, I would like to congratulate him on this achievement and wish him every success at the Games in Paris.”
Chaudhry said: “It is a massive thrill for me to have been selected for the Olympics and the realization of a dream. Of course, I have put in a lot of effort to get this far but I did not do it alone. Ever since I started refereeing in Ontario, I have been supported by many coaches and other match officials who have given me the tools, the opportunities and the encouragement to succeed. My hope now is that I can go to Paris and make them proud with my performances on that stage.”
The squad features match officials from 16 countries with Chaudhry the sole representative from Canada, although another Ontarian, Maggie Cogger-Orr, is also there. Cogger-Orr is originally from Markham, Ont, but will represent her adopted country, New Zealand, where she now lives and works.
The two Canadians have been chosen to officiate Olympic women’s play, which runs from 28-30 July at Stade de France, which was also the venue for the final of the Rugby World Cup 2023.
World Rugby High Performance Sevens Referee Manager Paddy O’Brien said: “I am very excited to be managing a hugely experienced and talented group of match officials to Paris 2024. To have so many countries represented as well as knowing every region is involved gives our management team a huge amount of satisfaction and is testament to the pathways we have had in place over the past four years. All those selected have worked extremely hard to ensure that when we arrive in Paris, we will have officials able to referee and officiate to the level required for such a special event.”
The officials were selected following a comprehensive review of performances across the HSBC SVNS 2024 series.
Rugby Canada announces 2024 Community Rugby Fund

April 17, 2024 (Langford, BC) – Rugby Canada, with funding from the Government of Canada, are pleased to announce the 22 successful applicants for 2024 that will receive support through Rugby Canada’s Community Rugby Fund. This is the highest number of clubs selected in a single year since the fund began in 2021.
2024 marks the fourth year of the Community Rugby Fund, which was made possible through the federal government’s Community Sport for All Initiative (CSAI). The fund supports National Sport Organizations (NSOs) in establishing more accessible and locally organized sport programs aimed at reducing barriers to participation, particularly among Black, Indigenous and racialized communities as well as 2SLGBTQI+ individuals, persons with disabilities, people with low incomes, and newcomers. A total of $16.7 million in funding was provided to 39 NSOs, including Rugby Canada.
This year, Rugby Canada received 67 applications from across Canada and with 22 recipients selected for 2024, a total of 49 applications have now been approved for funding since the Community Rugby Fund began in 2021.
For 2024, priority was given to rugby clubs, schools or community organizations who applied for grant funding that focused on cultivating the community game with special consideration given to projects that:
- Create or develop a school-to-club pathway to increase the number of registered rugby players participating in club rugby.
- Enhance inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility of rugby within a club, educational institution, or community organization, particularly for Black, Indigenous, 2SLGBTQI+, and newcomers to Canada.
- Create new programs or develop existing programs that aim to introduce women and girls to the game of rugby.
- Build program delivery capacity through the development of Coaches or Match Officials within the rugby community.
“2024 marks a monumental year for the Community Rugby Fund,” said Jamie Levchuk, Managing Director of Operations and Game Development for Rugby Canada. “This year we are proud to select 22 new recipients and provide $100 000 in total funding for the successful clubs, schools and community organizations who all displayed the ability to grow community and grassroots rugby in Canada. I look forward to seeing the long-lasting impact all our successful applications will have on our game.”

Rugby Ontario and Arrows Academy Announce 2024 Collaboration
Rugby Ontario and Arrows Academy Announce Collaboration, 2024 Season Details
WHITBY, ON – Rugby Ontario and The Arrows Academy are pleased to announce that the two organizations are collaborating to design and deliver Ontario’s senior men’s provincial program in 2024.
The strategic partnership will see the provincial sports governing body and the re-launched high-performance rugby academy come together to provide a professional experience for senior men’s rugby players across Ontario this upcoming season.
The Academy, building from the legacy of the Toronto Arrows, is a new Ontario-based development academy that provides elite rugby programs and training for athletes. Staffed by former Toronto Arrows coaches and players, including Jamie Cudmore, Shane Cahill and Noel Reid, the Academy’s Coaching Staff bring decades of playing and coaching experience at the professional and international level.

Phase 1 of the 2024 senior men’s provincial program season, which will commence in early spring, will see eligible* players gather in regional hubs for open training sessions led by both Academy coaches and other Rugby Ontario coaches. These regional squads will participate in spring matches against top-level, out-of-province sides (see schedule below).
Phase 2, which will run mid-spring, will see ~60 players selected^ players to participate in a centralized showcase Ontario East vs. Ontario West match with a final squad of players being selected from this showcase match.
Phase 3, projected for late spring, will see the final travelling squad selected for the 2024 Coast to Coast Cup in Halifax, NS the week of June 17th.

Brick by Brick: HERstory with Kelly Zacny & LeeAnn Napriorkowsi
Brick by Brick: HERstory with Kelly Zacny & LeeAnn Napriorkowsi
Last month, Rugby Ontario spoke with LeeAnn Napriorkowski and Kelly Zacny, the two recipients of the Women In Leadership Fund and avid members of our community, to share their insights and experiences during Women’s History Month. Napriorkowski currently serves as the President of the Canadian Jax and VP of Development at Lanark Highlanders while Zacny has recently become president at Georgian Bay Titans RFC. The conversation highlights the growth in the Women’s game and important steps to ensure more opportunities are within reach for women in rugby.
Advice to Women Trying To Find Their Place In Sport
Kelly Zacny: My whole life has been in male dominated fields and what you have to do is just never back down. You have to believe in your personality and know that you can do what you want to do and be strong about it. Don’t take no for an answer. Everybody’s still a human, man or woman. As long as we have the ability to do the job or to do whatever it is, we have the right to be there. Just keep pushing forward and don’t be intimidated. I think I intimidate guys more than intimidate me. Maybe because I’m used to it. But yeah, I’ve got guys that will inspire me or will roll with me which is actually a good feeling. It’s an empowering feeling and that’s one of the greatest things to me is being a part of combat sports and being in male dominated industries; its super empowering. I encourage women to do it because it feels damn good to walk into a room and feel confident about yourself and your abilities, especially when you’re in a male dominated aspect. Never back down ladies!
A Moment You Reflect on With Pride
LeeAnn Napriorkowski: Winning championships is great, and we’ve done that with different teams. I think building better humans is always part of my coaching mantra and that if you leave a programme that I’ve worked with you, you’ll become a better human by the end of it. I’m very lucky to have most of my high school players come back and help with our high school team. One of my colleagues now is one of my former high school players and he’s taken on the women’s team at St. Peter and in Ottawa. It’s a proud mama moment to sit and watch him take over practices and have other athletes come back and work with our crew and see their development through something that that I worked with them. It just makes me happy to see the work that I did coming to fruition with a new generation of athletes because rugby is a sport that you owe something back to.
Growth in Women’s Rugby
Kelly Zacny: I’m excited to see that women’s rugby is growing around the world and that world rugby has taken initiative to put more women on council and in decision making positions. Just improving the outreach of rugby in general because it is a phenomenal sport and both men and women should be playing on equal playing fields. I’m happy to see that there’s so much growth for sure. On the community level, I’m excited to be in this position. I’ve hit the ground running, and I’m excited just to build the sport in my community. I’m happy that Rugby Ontario is seeking a lot of initiative, and it seems they’re in the right direction in terms of helping women grow in the sport.
The Importance of Building a Platform for Women
LeeAnn Napriorkowski: It’s cool to have an opportunity to be able to speak to future leaders and future players. I just hope that they don’t think their voice doesn’t get heard and that they make sure to fight for things that matter. Let’s celebrate the good and let’s make sure that everyone hears about the good and we try to help each other out. Especially as women, I think it’s important that instead of putting each other down, we build each other up and make sure that when Kelly’s successful, I’m successful. We share that experience with each other so that everyone can be successful together.
The Roles of Women in Sport
Kelly Zacny: Women are very capable, and people just need to recognize, and we just need to step up and get in those roles. I think we have a lot to offer, and people will see. I know even myself just getting on the board this year. People can see women can bring a lot of different skills to the table and skills that are often needed. I’m not saying it’s a man versus a woman thing, but we often just have character traits, personality traits, organizational skills or multitasking skills that offer a different perspective. Don’t don’t be afraid to go out there and go after what you want because we have a lot to offer.
Ontario Blues Provincial Team 2024 Update
Ontario Blues Provincial Team 2024 Update
U19 – Men and Women
Rugby Ontario has partnered with the four provincial branches (EORU, TRU, NRU, and SWRU) to have selection competitions for athletes representing the U19 Rugby Ontario team competing in the 2024 CRC. This process will allow players to showcase their skills and abilities throughout three matches rather than relying on a single tryout session. This process ensures that selection is based on consistent performance rather than a one-off display. Provincial coaches and selectors will be present to observe players in competitive situations during the interbranch competition. This process will provide a more transparent and objective way of selecting players than tryouts, which can sometimes be influenced by subjective biases or limited observation time. Overall, competitions in provincial rugby offer a more comprehensive and effective method of player selection and development compared to tryouts, allowing for greater fairness, transparency, and growth opportunities for all involved.
Structure
Round-robin, each region will play each other once. This competition aims to create a high-octane, competitive platform for rugby while fostering provincial interest and showcasing the best talent from different regions. These competitions will identify the Top 26 Ontario athletes at the 2024 Canadian Rugby Championship, which will be held in August 2024 at Acadia University.
Teams
Four regional Branch Teams
NRU
EORU
SWRU
Schedule
Matches will be held between June 16th -July 7th, 2024.

Rugby Ontario has partnered with the four provincial branches (EORU, TRU, NRU, and SWRU) for the 2024 Ontario Summer Games.

This competition aims to create a high-octane, competitive platform for rugby while fostering provincial interest and showcasing the best talent from different regions. Expect a cost of approximately $400
U17
A four-regional team model will encourage more young athletes to get the opportunity to participate. This broader inclusion encourages excellent participation rates and allows talent from various areas to be recognized and nurtured. The inter-branch competition allows for more focused talent identification. Coaches can closely observe players within smaller geographic areas, making identifying and developing promising athletes easier. This localized approach increases the likelihood of discovering hidden talents that might have been overlooked in a more extensive provincial setup. Regional teams generally require less travel than a single provincial team, as players are drawn from smaller geographical areas. This reduction in travel expenses benefits players and their families, making participation more accessible to a broader range of individuals regardless of financial constraints. Regional teams foster a stronger sense of community engagement. Local communities often rally around their teams, providing support and resources for player development. This grassroots involvement can strengthen bonds between players, coaches, and fans, creating a supportive environment for young athletes to thrive. With four regional teams, there’s likely to be a higher level of competition within each team as players compete for positions and recognition. This increased competition pushes players to continuously improve their skills and performance, raising the overall standard of play within each region. This competition is a pathway opportunity that prepares young athletes for higher levels of competition, such as provincial and national tryouts and tournaments. The experience gained from competing in a regional setting equips players with valuable skills, resilience, and adaptability needed to succeed at the provincial, national, and even international levels.
