Spring Rugby
Contact & Non-Contact Play Levels
Ages 7-14
Girls/Boys Youth Rugby
Welcome to Northshore Rhinos Youth Rugby, one of the fastest growing youth sport offerings in America. We offer Spring league play and Fall and Winter training for ages 7-14.
Previous rugby experience is not necessary, we have appropriate placement for all ages and experience. Our goal is simple, to teach the sport of rugby in a safe and nurturing environment while creating a true love for the sport. Best of all, the big guys have the opportunity to handle and carry the ball.
COMMITMENT TO PLAY & PRACTICE
Our goal is to attract more kids to try the sport of Rugby. We feel it is important to have a more relaxed commitment level during the busy spring season. As always communication is key to a successful season. We only ask that families properly communicate conflicts to our coaching staff so that they can plan accordingly.
