Rugby Star Cipriani Training with Rapids
Commerce City, Colo. – The Colorado Rapids have a guest taking part in training this week. Some fans of England and / or Rugby Union may have heard of him. His name is Danny Cipriani.
“Dan has a friendship with members of our coaching staff and is currently training with the club,” said Rapids head coach Gary Smith. “He wanted to take advantage of training at altitude and to engage in competitive sessions with our club as we prepare for the last part of our season.”
Cipriani, 22, is a rugby player who most recently played fly-half for London Wasps. Earlier this year, he signed with the Melbourne Rebels of Australia Super 15 Rugby. He has been capped seven times with England.
Over the summer, the left-footed Cipriani has kept in shape with training stints at Queens Park Rangers and Tottenham Hotspurs.
