In 2024, we continued the tradition of presenting the Alan Sharpley Memorial Award and celebrating the 2001 USA Rugby Men’s College XVs National DII Championship team, Baylor University.
Alan Sharpley Memorial Award
This year, the Alan Sharpley Award for visionary leadership honors the original shareholders, we’re calling them the ‘Burr Field OGs’ who funded and built Texas’s first club-owned rugby facility, Burr Field. Their dedication turned a flood plain into an iconic rugby touchstone, with many shareholders donating their stakes back to the club.
