COACH W.B. "BART" BUTLER

Founder and Club Director

Coach Bart's rugby career started in 1978 at Tennessee Technological University.  He played there for two years and then transferred to Middle Tennessee State University in 1980.  MTSU did not have an existing rugby club, so Bart decided to start one. He played and coached there until 1984. 

 Rutherford Rugby Club was first organized as a middle school team from Stewarts Creek Middle School in February of 2011.
