Rugby Union is a sport where every child can succeed. Different positions on the field call for different body types and personalities. Some kids have an early (or late) growth spurt, or are new to the sport and need to learn the basics. Requests can be made to play up or down an age-division to ensure everyone is safe and has a great time!

AJRU has teams for both boys and girls in a range of age groups. Training is usually on Tuesdays and/or Thursdays. Training days are communicated through your team app. Email us for more info.
