The Club Ethos
Rugby is a sport that helps young people to develop confidence and comradeship within themselves by learning the arts of teamwork, discipline, respect, sportsmanship and enjoyment. All this whilst being taught how to pass, tackle and scrummage in the most friendly and sociable of atmospheres.
We are looking to build on the success of last season, after seeing the number of boys and girls playing rugby at our club increase by 40%.
So we look forward to seeing you on September 4th 2011 ready to enjoy yourselves playing this great game.
Terry Alleyne
Youth Chairman
