HAPPY FIRST DAY OF SUMMER!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE GOTHAM KNIGHTS RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB!

The Gotham Knights Rugby team has won the Bingham Cup beating the Sydney Convicts 18-5. The Bingham Cup, held in Minneapolis this year, is a biannual international, non-professional, gay rugby union tournament, first held in 2002. The tournament was named after Mark Bingham, a former University of California – Berkeley rugby star. Bingham died in the September 11, 2001 attacks on board United Airlines Flight 93.

We’re very proud of our players and the hard work it took by them, the club, and all the supporters to get us to this point.
