Rugby

Rugby Union is a game that develops leadership, team spirit, courage, sportsmanship, and friendship. These values and traditions develop from the first time a young player shakes hands with their opposite number, leading to a life long passion for and involvement with the game at all levels. Foremost, the game of Rugby embodies the best personal values and an indomitable spirit.

Teamwork and Camaraderie

Rugby is unselfish and focused on team play achievement. Its rugged nature is balanced by the concepts of fair play, sportsmanship, fun and ultimately friendship. This can be experienced at any age, any level and anywhere - on the field, in the stands or in the club.

Love of the Game

Rugby engenders an abiding passion - an intensely personal pleasure in playing or watching. It creates an unaffected joy.

Tradition and Heritage

The ethos of rugby has shaped a code of behaviour that has transcended generations since the game first started. It's time-honoured legacy creates a broader social environment for the sport that engages the family and community and strengthens the ties that bind the community together.
