Perry Baker to Run Exclusive 7s Training Session at St. Mary’s College of Maryland

St. Mary’s College of Maryland is gearing up for an unforgettable experience on April 8 as Perry Baker, a three-time Olympian and two-time World Rugby Sevens Player of the Year, visits the campus to run a 7s training session with both the men’s and women’s rugby teams.

This exclusive training session is the result of a special opportunity won by St. Mary’s College’s teams through their participation in recent FlagX webinars with rugby legend Dallen Stanford. The training session promises to be a day of skill-building, excitement, and inspiration for all involved.

FlagX is a growing initiative that combines flag rugby with 7s, incorporating an exciting and essential fundraising element for all club programs. Additionally, it provides a crucial platform for clubs to connect with alumni and attract new players. Equipment is provided to your club at no cost, making it incredibly easy to get started.
