Full rules apply with a few exceptions at the various age groups. The junior section of the club fields teams from under 13’s through to colts (school year 8 and upwards).
In 2004 the club was amongst the first in the NLD to attain the RFU Seal of Approval, and all of our coaches are at least Level 1 qualified and are CRB checked.
We are a rapidly expanding section of the club and our doors are always open, to new players and experienced players alike, so if you have an interest in Rugby Union why not come down and give us a TRY ! Our season begins in September and ends in May, and training sessions and games are on Sunday mornings from 10am until 12pm.
