NORAM Cup '25 – Trans Match

The North America (NORAM) Cup is a biennial gay and inclusive rugby tournament, and the largest rugby union tournament in North America. The inaugural NORAM Cup was in 2023, hosted by the Charlotte Royals in North Carolina. The host city and club for the 2025 tournament is Boston, Massachusetts and the Boston Ironsides RFC. Similar to the Bingham Cup and the Union Cup on an international and European scale respectively and held biennially, the NORAM Cup focuses on promoting inclusivity, diversity, and camaraderie within the rugby community specifically in North America.

San Diego Armada Rugby

SDARFC is a gender-inclusive rugby union club, based in San Diego, CA. The Bingham Cup is the biennial world championships of gay and inclusive rugby. Because Bingham '22 was held in Ottawa, Canada, I paid homage to the local First Nations tribes in my design: Algonquin, Ojibwe, Mohawk, and Cree. Each tribe is represented in the design; Algonquin often used turquoise in their beadwork (featured in the birchbark-inspired sleeve pattern), both Ojibwe and Cree use(d) birchbark (sleeve pattern) to build canoes, and Mohawk use maple sap in their new year Maple Ceremony (maple leaves). Along the bottom is an abstract eagle-feather pattern, highly revered creatures in both Canada and America. The orange of "With You", birchbark pattern, and numbering are nods to First Nations sovereignty and healing, in light of the recently unearthed mass gravesites at Residential Schools across the nation.
