Tornados Select Side
The iYRA All State Select Side rugby team for boys was established to create an environment for individual youth girls to compete and excel at higher levels of competition.
The All State Select Side coach selects high school club players who display special talent for the game of rugby for the Select Side team which receives special coaching and training to enable the team to compete against other All State teams and international teams that visit this country. It is the aim of the iYRA to take the Illinois All State team on annual tours to foreign countries to compete against other international teams.
The official name of the Illinois All State team is the Tornados and we trust our team will earn the recognition synonymous with this natural occurrence that is found in our State and become a powerful force within Interstate and International competition circles.
The current coach of the Tornados is Nolan Day.
