Worthing Minis Section U5’s-U11’s (2022-23)
WELCOME
Welcome to the Minis section at Worthing RFC! The Minis section includes teams from the U5’s (Reception year in school (ages 4-5)) through to the U11’s (Year 6 at school (ages 10-11)).
Whether your child has never played rugby before or has been playing for years, we welcome you to come along and give it a try. We play nearly every Sunday morning from September to April and all you have to do is turn up! Your first four sessions are free, so you can ensure your child enjoys rugby with us before becoming a member of the club.
Our primary focus is on the children having fun whilst being active enjoying the fresh air! The U5’s do not play matches, just friendly sessions each week. The U6’s are learning to play tag rugby with friendly sessions each week and there is also the opportunity to ‘play up’ with the U7s in a couple of festivals throughout the season where multiple clubs come together to play each other. The U7’s and U8’s play tag rugby with training weekly and festivals throughout the season. The U9’s, U10’s and U11’s play contact rugby with training weekly and festivals throughout the season. We also incorporate England Rugby’s core values of Teamwork, Respect, Enjoyment, Discipline and Sportsmanship through all the sessions.
