Julia Diskin

Coaching Career

I have held the varsity girls head coach position since 2012. I am influenced by my playing experience with Cal Women's Rugby, U23 & Senior Pacific Coast Grizzlies, Berkeley All Blues RFC, and my mentor, coach, and World Rugby Hall of Fame member, Kathy Flores. Most recently, I was honored as a new member of the Cal Women's Rugby Hall of Fame for my experience and influence in coaching high school student-athletes.


Why O'Dowd?

O'Dowd's rugby program and team culture are unique in the Northern California region. I am passionate about introducing generations of Dragons to the sport of rugby. It is the best feeling watching our players and families fall in love with the sport for life.
