Tomorrow, March 15, is the deadline to register for the Girls High School National Championship, which occurs May 19-20 in Elkhart, Ind. The deposit deadline is April 1, although the organizing committee encourages interested teams to reach out, as there is some flexibility.
In particular, the organizing committee is looking for Midwest club teams to participate in the home venue, and DII teams are welcome. For more information, visit http://hsgirlsrugbynationals.club/ or go straight to the registration page for an idea of what information is required to apply.
