Why Play Rugby?

Physical Health

Rugby develops all aspects of physical fitness. Given the current obesity crisis in our country, playing rugby can help prevent weight gain. Kids involved in sports are more likely to make healthier life choices, avoiding unhealthy foods and habits.

Mental Health

Playing sports can positively impact mental health. Rugby helps reduce stress and improve mood. Rugby fosters self-confidence and self-esteem, which can extend to other areas of life. Interacting with teammates and opponents improves social skills.

Life Skills

Rugby requires discipline and concentration, teaching valuable life skills. Rugby promotes teamwork and collective problem-solving. Being part of a rugby team requires effective communication. Players learn to express themselves clearly, listen actively, and work together to acheive common goals.  

Rugby is Safe

In Youth Rugby, we use flags to simulate tackles and have a non-contact approach. This ensures children can learn the fundamentals of the sport before progressing into contact rugby in later years. Our coaches are all SafeSport and USA Rugby certified and will teach your children proper technique to avoid serious injuries.
