Under 15s

About the team

To be eligible for U15s during the 2025-2026 season, your son must be aged 14 years on 1st September 2025 (i.e. in school Year 10)

At this age group we play full contact rugby, with player safety absolutely our top priority. As a result mouth guards are mandatory.

These are the core skills of Rugby: PASSING, CATCHING, TACKLING, RUNNING and EVASION.

Our players have the freedom to play without the fear of making mistakes, to express themselves, use their imagination and to be creative (in other words, be themselves).

We have a squad of mixed ability and stature, they all have their own strengths and and areas to work on. The players naturally grow and develop at different rates and we look carefully at the needs of both the individual and the team in terms of their development.

We really encourage the boys to help each other out because learning from your peers is a great way to learn!

We ensure that they understand and follow Rugby's five core values of Teamwork, Respect, Enjoyment, Disciple and Sportsmanship.

We operate a rotation policy so all of our players are given equal game time.

Child Protection – We adhere to the RFU’s Safeguarding Guidelines. All our coaches are RFU qualified and hold enhanced DBS (criminal records) checks.

Concussion – any player that receives a knock to the head will be immediately removed from play and will not be allowed to return. We will assess the player and we will, if necessary, recommend that the player is taken for assessment by a medical professional.
