NSRFC Hall of Fame

NSRFC is proud to announce Chad Horn as the newest member of the NSRFC Hall of Fame. Chad is a North Shore Rugby Club legend. The man is true grit and all heart. If Chad wasn't making the big tackle or stopping the try on the field, he was helping his teammates on or off the field. With his love of the game and the love everyone had for the way he played it, he is responsible for the camaraderie and NSRFC brotherhood you feel when you put the jersey on. That is why Chad Horn is a NSRFC Hall of Famer.
