Age Grade Rugby…
Age Grade Rugby is the framework for 6-18-year olds in clubs, schools and colleges.
The format at various ages ensures that young players play the right rugby at the right time. These formats are supported by the regulations of the Age Grade game and have been developed by scientific research and studies on player development in sport.
The principle behind the Rules of Play is to provide a playing format with building blocks to the 15-a-side game that allows players time to get to grips with the basics of running and catching the ball before contact and specialism is gradually introduced – which positively impacts on player safety.

The scrum moves from 3 to 5 players at this age group and with rucking and mauling the number of players coming into support is unlimited. The introduction of handing off also comes into play at this age group.
