The Lakes Rugby Club provides teams from Under 6 through to Under 17. We play a relatively short winter season so as not to clash with school commitments. Younger children play on a smaller field with highly modified rules designed to develop their motor skills and the ability to play in a team environment. Under 6 to Under 7’s play Walla Rugby which is 7 a side with no tackling. Rugby brings together children and young adults from all walks of life and socio-economic groups to grow their skills through quality competition and build friendships that will last forever. The emphasis of the game is to have fun and learn through positive reinforcement in a safe and managed quality environment.

The Lakes Rugby Club provides a great social environment, not only for the players but also for the supporters and families. With canteens and BBQ on training nights, it really is a great way to catch up with friends and wind down from the week. Siblings and friends are encouraged to come along and enjoy the games and fun in the park. Our club is not driven by placing that pressure to perform on young players. This is reflected by the number of smiling faces every training night and on game days. Rugby is not only a game but a strong and lasting social network for all to join and enjoy!
