Welcome to Ealing U8s

Minis & Youth Rugby - A RFU Gold Seal of Approval Club

The U8 section welcomes boys and girls 7 years of age as of 1 September who wish to be involved in a team sport with an established rugby club. We train on a Sunday morning with registration at 11.45 for a 12:00 start. Please note that children must be under parent’s supervision at all times

The U8 section is the mini tag rugby level where players play competitive tag rugby against other clubs. Throughout the year we compete in local tournaments and within the Middlesex league. We also take part in curtain raisers with Wasps, Quinns and London Irish.

In the U8’s we try to give all the players an equal enjoyment of rugby whilst not only just teaching them the basic skills of the game but also the ethics as well.  We welcome all players of different standards with help from mums and dads who fancy a run out on a Sunday.

We both encourage and rely on parents to become involved whether they have played rugby or have no previous experience. We rely on our more active parents joining in and helping run our weekly sessions and helping our youngsters feel safe and comfortable. As you become more involved your club will pay for your attendance to RFU mini tag courses and coaches’ development evenings throughout the year; or if you prefer, referee courses or first aide courses.  If none of these suit, don't worry because we always have events where volunteers are needed including festivals and tours where help is required to run stalls, park cars, arrange social events and so on.
All our coaches, managers and committee members are parents and unpaid volunteers.
We have an excellent club and it's solely down to its volunteers

We look forward to welcoming you to our club and joining in with the rest of us to give our children an enjoyable and fulfilling rugby experience.
