Dan Burr, a Wisconsin native and former US Naval Officer, joined the coaching staff in summer 2022 as Head Coach of the 7's program and an Assistant coach for the 15's program. Dan picked up the beautiful sport of rugby in 1995 at the Naval Academy which began a long, and continuing, career as a 9, 10 and wing. Dan has since played for the Charleston Outlaws, Hawaii Harlequins, Alamo City Defenders, and Fort Bragg RFC just to name a few. He still periodically kits up for WestPot as well as the occasional tour with Old Breed. 

Although he loves to be on the pitch playing, Dan started coaching years ago and has coached at the high school level with the Maryland Exiles and at the collegiate level with the Naval Academy for both their 7's and 15's program.

Coach Burr thrives on making dedicated amateur athletes better tomorrow than they were yesterday. He believes great teams make great people and is constantly cultivating greatness with WPRFC.
