Youth rugby is aimed at introducing the full 15-a-side game to boys. Most of the rules for the full game apply to the various age groups, but vary only slightly in the scrum and line-out areas for safety purposes. For example lifting in the line-out is only allowed from U16 upwards.
Training/Coaching sessions for are held at the club every Sunday during the season starting at 10.30 a.m. (see individual age groups for the schedule of training and matches).
The club has more than 20 coaches who have qualifications for Youth and Mini rugby coaching and all have been CRB checked. For more information e-mail:

Structured for under 13's to under 16's, the players evolve to 15 aside full contact games, putting into practise the skills and techniques taught through the Mini development programme.
