It’s rugby season and in case you didn’t know, the city of Glendale has one of the premier rugby stadiums in the United States, Infinity Park. In simple terms, rugby is a full contact team sport that originated in England in the 19th Century. It’s somewhat similar to American football because they are both team sports, played on large fields with an oval ball, there is a lot of running and sometimes kicking the ball but the similarities end there. Rugby is fun, fast paced game that is definitely worth checking out and as the players say… ”give blood, play rugby”! The Glendale Raptors are lucky to call Infinity Park “home”. There are men’s and women’s teams and also a youth league. I recommend checking the schedule and going to watch a game… I know you’ll enjoy it!
Aside from the rugby stadium, there is also an events center and sports center at Infinity Park and it’s becoming one of the hot spots in Denver. Infinity Park now hosts a lot of events including fireworks during the 4th of July, free concerts and this Monday they will show the last free, outdoor movie of the season. Gates open at 7:00 and admission is free. Bring your picnic basket and a blanket and enjoy watching the last movie of the summer will be Twilight.
Loving life in Denver!
