We are a small friendly local rugby team who are entering our 9th season. Our team was born as a result of senior players wanting to start a youth and colt team and teach young children the skills they need to play the game in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. We currently take children between the ages of four and twelve (Reception through to Year 7) and the club is split into the below areas;
• Children between the ages of four and six learn ball skills through fun and play
• Under 7s and Under 8s: the children play ‘tag rugby’, a fast moving, non-contact game, designed to teach them about ball skills, movement and space.
• Under 9 – Under 11: In line with the RFU’s Continuum, the children are introduced to the contact game, learning and developing new skills as they progress through the age groups.
Whilst we have lots of children coming up and through the ranks, we welcome all players regardless of ability or previous experience. Minis rugby is open to both boys and girls on an equal basis and the teams are mixed.
Everyone is welcome to come and join in with us.
If you would like to know more please don’t hesitate to contact us at [email protected], visit our Facebook page or just turn up to one of our training sessions. We train every Sunday at 10am on the pitches at Arlebury Park, unless we're away at fixtures or festivals.
