Our common goal is to develop rugby. As a potential new club or start-up, it may seem daunting to get a youth or adult program started, or to put together a program that will successfully engage children and adults, and encourage them to continue playing rugby. Or, for new players (and parents!), it could be a little intimidating to start a new sport like rugby.
This page should hopefully help you get started on the basics of rugby; for start-ups there is some info to get you going and grow a program, and new players will find something to help you understand some basics and ease you into the game. For established players there is something for you as well to help you improve your skills. We like to think of ourselves as a family, lets work together to build our rugby communities!
The typical Rugby Program emphasis should be on Fun, Learning, Camaraderie & Teamwork, and Personal Development in a Safe Environment. Building a rugby culture, player by player, and providing a rewarding rugby experience to boys, girls and adults of all ages.

Question for potential start-ups (School/School PE Programs, After-School, Clubs, etc)
Is rugby expensive to run? Easy/difficult? Well, no!
Some coaching resources for younger kids (Elementary schools, PE Programs etc).
Take a look at the drop-downs below. We tried to put together a collection of sample plans, programs and presentations. Examples are for a 30-90-minute session, from 1-day to 1 week, Rookie Rugby and Elementary School. These are very flexible, and can be adjusted slightly or significantly to be used at most Youth Levels. It depends on how much time you have available. Also available are links to the Laws of the Game.
