Tokyo Sankyu Phoenix Rugby Club
Rugby Team
Profile
Phoenix was established as women’s rugby team in 2002. Although the team was not weak, the team once was under consideration of break up due to shortness of players. Replacing Tokyo as their base, the team was renamed “Tokyo Phoenix Rugby Club” when Shinomiya inaugurated as a club owner and club director. The team which used to rely on players’ power, are now changing to a team gaining strength with aggressive actions. Today, the team is aggressively practicing for strength involving several players representing Japan, to become a BIG team that could fight against the top club teams in Japan and abroad. Appreciating the many cheers given to the team, the club team always strives to win more, to become a team that symbolize Tokyo.
