The Nova Scotia Rugby Union (ORU) also known as Rugby Nova Scotia[1] is the provincial governing body for the sport of rugby union in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia and a Provincial Union of Rugby Canada. Rugby Nova Scotia governs various levels of rugby (Mini-Rugby, Under-12, Under-14, Under-16, Under-18, Senior, Masters, Non-contact).
High Performance Program
Rugby Nova Scotia is represented on the National stage by the Nova Scotia Keltics. This program includes 15's teams at the following ages: U15, U16, U17, U18, U19, U20 and Senior; which compete at the Canadian Rugby Championship in championship and festival divisions. In 2009, Rugby Canada decided to disband the RCSL and replace it with a new U-20 league called the Rugby Canada National Junior Championship. The Keltics were chosen as one of the remaining RCSL clubs to enter the newly formed league.
