The Women’s and Men’s programs have announced their head staff for the upcoming season.
Men
Peter Houlihan - Goes back to the men after being with the women for the last 2 seasons. With a large history of playing and coaching for the Druids. He also brings expertise from the University of Alberta Pandas rugby team as well as Edmonton Gold and Alberta Wolfpack
Chal Smyth - Another long time Druid player and coach, Chal has been with the women’s team previously as well but more recently comes back to the Senior’s from coaching our Junior teams. As well as many REP teams over that last number of years.
Women
Dan Noel - From BBQ’n to the rugby pitch Dan is #1. He has been the head of many wins and banners up in the clubhouse for some of our junior programs. His multi sport background and dedication is just what we need to refocuse our women. With a large number of ladies committed the women are in for a treat with this coach!
Ryan O'Donoghue - A Legacy Druid who had the coolest honour of playing with his dad and his son at our 65th anniversary last summer. He has also been at the head of success with some of our junior programs. Ryan’s knowledge and delivery are right on par with the growth we are seeking in our women’s teams.
Welcome! Glad to have you!
