For over 25 years Wimbledon RFC has been running minis and youth rugby. As a pioneer in kids rugby, we are one of the biggest clubs in the country with over 650 kids in the section and pride ourselves on a welcoming environment.
Wimbledon RFC is fortunate to have 9 pitches on-site so everyone can play rugby at our grounds (most other clubs are spread around the place) and benefit from the facilities at our excellent clubhouse.
Mixed rugby for boys and girls aged 4 to 11
Minis rugby is both mixed sex and mixed ability, as per Surrey Rugby and England Rugby requirements. We welcome kids of all abilities, stretching the more talented and supporting those who are still learning. The team-working skills they learn in the minis section prepare them for a life-long love of rugby.
Four and five year olds play in our Under 5 and Under 6 combined team. You're always welcome to try a few sessions out before joining. The emphasis is on fun, ball skills and working together as we introduce tag rugby.
When the kids move into the Under 7s they start playing tag rugby matches and festivals as well as training at home.
Under 8s is the final year of tag rugby as they hone their straight running, passing and tagging skills.
At Under 9s we introduce tackling in a safe and controlled manner. We see many new joiners in the Under 9s as playing Sunday club rugby is a brilliant way to support school rugby.
Under 10s see the introduction of rucks and mauls.
Under 11s, the final year of mixed rugby, is when we see all the hard work come together.
