The USMA rugby football team is a good alternative for agile American footballers, soccer players, wrestlers, and martial artists looking for a very fast paced, hard hitting sport that will test you in ways most other sports cannot. It also develops a sense of teamwork to a very high level (and probably one of the few SA sports that will be in the 2016 Olympics too).
The USMA rugby team is extremely competitive, travels nationally, and enjoys a good coaching staff as well.
Be sure to work on your cardio fitness because rugby matches are 90 minutes of sprint, wrestle, sprint, tackle, sprint, etc. etc. Check out some You Tube videos to get an idea of what you are getting yourself into (you might like it!).
As you might guess, I played rugby in college, adult club, and coached youth rugby for years. My daughter plays rugby for UC Berkeley and my son expects to play for USMA this year, so I am terribly biased.
It would not hurt to send an email to the rugby Coach Pohlidal to explain your abilities and request the opportunity to try out. Email Coach here:

Do not be disappointed if you receive no response as there is very little time and much to do at West Point between now and Beast, but he will get your message.
