Welcome to the Didcot Rugby Club Under 13s!

We are a team of boys in Year 8!

We play transitional contact rugby, as part of the RFU (England's Rugby Union governing body) Age Grade Rugby programme. This provides a structured way to build up a players abilities year by year.

At Under 13 we build on the skills we taught our players in previous seasons by having fully contested 6 player scrums.

At Under 9 we taught them about tackling.
At Under 10 we taught them about uncontested scrums, the maul and the ruck.
At Under 11 we taught them about kicking/restarts, contested hooking and how to ruck and maul with increased players.
At Under 12 we introduced them to a 5 player scrum, handoffs (below the armpits) and unlimited players in the maul and ruck.

Our emphasis is on enjoyment and equal participation for our players, whilst learning the skills needed for a life long appreciation of the game.
Come and join us Thursdays 6 - 7:30 pm or Sunday 10 am - 12 pm, at our facilities at Boundary Park Didcot.
