The challenge for this age group is to ensure a smooth transition from Tag rugby to the first stages of the full contact game. We work mainly on tackling skills, ruck and maul techniques as well as the usual ball handling and positioning drills. We have a full program of Skills Development Days, competitive matches and tournaments throughout the season. The Rugby Continuum for 2010/11 sets out the rules and regulations for the U9s.
The emphasis throughout is for the boys and girls to enjoy their rugby while at the same time learning the basic skills and gaining an aptitude for the game. To reflect and understand the Laws of the game plus view the current Club Policies and Codes of Conduct please click on the Club Policies page. There is a wealth of information to help you enjoy your time at Cranbrook RFC whether you are a member or just visiting. Please take the time to view the links there and gain a better understanding of those laws that relate to this age group in particular. Training sessions and games at home will be at the club almost every Sunday morning from 10.00-12.00 (please check fixtures below / latest news / emails).
