Junior Rugby
Our fledgling rugby players are introduced to the basics of the game and begin to develop skills which are built upon as their ability increases. Using a rugby ball tailored to their size, elements of tag rugby are introduced, including holding onto the ball with two hands whilst running forwards, landing the ball for a try, and looking up whilst running with the ball. In addition to this, the children are also learning "Early Learning Goals" such as their colours and identifying different body parts that they exercise when playing sport. In essence Little Rugby provides a fun, safe learning environment where your child will be encouraged to move from parent-supported participation, to active, independent interaction. Mighty Rugby
By this stage most of our budding rugby players will have a basic coordination which enables the coaches to expand on the skills learnt before. Evasive running, always facing fowards towards the opposition, and receiving a pass whilst on the move are just some of the components of the course at this stage. With the assistance of real "Tag Rugby Belts" the children are also beginning to learn the fundamental rules of Tag Rugby whilst exercising and having fun! Irrespective of what part sport plays in your child’s future, we honestly believe the capacity to participate in controlled play, to concentrate on instructions and visually assess a game will hold them in good stead for the future.
