SEATTLE, WA — The Seattle Seawolves today announced the International Rugby Coaching Summit with USA Military & British Army, taking place Tuesday, June 9, 2026, from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM PT at Tukwila Community Center ahead of The Liberty Cup: USA Military vs British Army Rugby Match presented by Concentric Advisors.
The coaching summit will provide rugby coaches from across the Pacific Northwest with a unique opportunity to learn directly from internationally recognized coaches representing the Seattle Seawolves, USA Military Rugby, and British Army Rugby Union.
The summit will feature a combination of classroom and on-field instruction designed to support coaches at all levels of the sport. Topics will include player development, rugby safety, coaching structure, attack systems, defensive organization, and modern coaching principles.
“Opportunities like this do not come around often,” said Allen Clarke, Director of Rugby and Head Coach of the Seattle Seawolves. “To have coaches from the Seattle Seawolves, USA Military Rugby, and British Army Rugby all together in one environment creates an incredible learning experience for coaches throughout our region. This is about continuing to grow rugby the right way while building stronger connections across the global rugby community.”

Session one will focus on elementary and middle school coaches with an emphasis on youth coaching and rugby safety. Session two will focus on high school, college, and adult-level coaches, including positional breakout groups for forwards and backs.
