About the team

At U9s we concentrate on “Child Centred Learning”. In short we want the children (boys and girls) to have as much fun as possible whilst playing Rugby. (In all weather conditions!)

At U9’s we progress to contact rugby which is in line with the RFU’s guidelines to age graded rugby. We play 7-a-side rugby with tackles and holds, but there are no scrum, rucks or mauls - that will come later and we want the children to progress to this stage having fun learning the key skills of the game.

We have 40 registered players and are very fortunate to have 13 amazing coaches. Our Team Managers (TMS) are Emily Turner and Lara Crew. All our coaches and TMs are DBS checked. We have several coaches who have formal RFU qualifications and 5 First Aiders. All of the coaches are parents and we encourage parents to get involved wherever possible.

Our Principals of Guiding our U9’s revolves around the 5 key RFU principals namely…

T - TEAMWORK
R - RESPECT
E - ENJOYMENT
D - DISCIPLINE
S - SPORTSMANSHIP

We deliver this through child centered learning ensuring that all games are….

A - ACTIVE
P - PURPOSEFUL
E - ENJOYABLE
S - SAFE

Through this we hope to develop the children’s skills meeting the RFU’s key principals.

During the course of the year we aim to get all the children to as many tournaments as possible as long as they are RFU registered and all subs paid via Pitchero.

Our coaching philosophy is focussed on helping children, coaches and parents to gain a better understanding of what it takes to succeed in playing rugby. Success is not about winning – Play to Win Lose with a Grin.
