Under 6

At age 6, Ampthill Rugby introduces children to the sport in a fun, safe, and welcoming environment. Training sessions focus on basic movement skills such as running, catching, and throwing, all through games and simple rugby-themed activities. The goal is to foster a love of sport while developing coordination and teamwork, ensuring that young players enjoy their first experience of rugby.

While formal matches are not usually played at this age, occasional fun festivals and non-competitive mini-games are arranged to help children become familiar with the flow of the game and build confidence. Parents are encouraged to get involved, helping to create a friendly community atmosphere that supports the youngest players’ early development.
