Rugbytots North Devon

Rugbytots is the first of its kind; a specifically designed play programme using the multiple skills of Rugby to create a fun and enjoyable environment.

2 - 3ВҪ years - The junior Rugbytots class has been developed to start encouraging children to use core skills like balance, agility and co-ordination. We use multi-coloured foam balls and cones to ensure the children's safety at all times. The 30 minute parent participated session includes passing, catching, try scoring, cone kicking, and games involving giant rugby balls

3ВҪ - 5 years - The senior Rugbytots class has been developed to build on the basic motor skills learnt and to start looking at the more specific skills used in Rugby. We have specifically designed games and tasks to teach children to find space, pass the rugby ball backwards, score a "well worked" try and much more. We use midi size rugby balls for this class so the children can get used to the weight and feel of a proper ball. The senior Rugbytots class lasts for 45 minutes and whilst parent's involvement is welcome, it is not essential.

5 - 7 years - The advanced Rugbytots class has been developed with the same вҖңfun firstвҖқ approach that is present throughout the whole programme. Driven by popular demand from parents to start a class for this age group we were able to utilise the valuable knowledge and experience of our current coaches, some of whom have played at the highest level, to produce a programme capable of further developing children who have enjoyed their time at Rugbytots.
