At this age group, we play tag and touch rugby, with sessions designed around developing ABCs – agility, balance, and coordination – alongside basic ball-handling skills. Most importantly, everything is taught through fun, engaging games to keep the children smiling and excited to play each week.

Our Under 5/6s engage in fun and full energy training sessions each week at home. From January each season, the group splits to allow the older players dedicated time to work on game play ahead of the U7s season, where weekly training sessions turn to competitive matches.
