Overview

Mission

The club has been organized to promote and compete in the sport of rugby in the South Shore of Massachusetts and on a national and international level. To encourage and foster the development and participation of the sport at all levels of play is a priority of the organization. The activities to achieve these goals will be carried out under section 5013 of the Internal Revenue Codes and under the corresponding section of any true Federal tax codes.

What it reported doing in 2025

The clubs teams participated in the spring and fall schedule of games for the New England Rugby Football Union. In support of these contests the club also provided its 115 members access to rugby training facilities as well as dedicated coaching twice a week.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 92% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
