Our Boys Under 7's team is the ideal introductory program for Rugby. We focus this year on passing and positioning.

With no contact or tackling in any of our games all players will focus on having fun!!

We also introduce players to the social side of rugby and all players will have the opportunity to play in other clubs throughout Connacht.

2017 - 2018 Mini Rugby season kicks off on Saturday 23rd September.

We'll have 2 sessions again this season:

10.00am: U7, U8, U9 & U10 Boys.
11.30am: U11 & U12 Boys and All Girls.

With ongoing pitch redevelopment we will continue to train on club's all-weather
training pitch and local school grass pitches.

We have arranged competitive matches at clubs throughout the province for the season ahead.
The imminent opening of the Tuam to Gort motorway will open up easier and quicker access
for trips to all Galway clubs.

This season all players will receive new club jerseys as part of their registration.
Jerseys will be distributed a few weeks in to the season.

Navy rugby shorts and plain green socks can be purchased locally.
( New club shorts and socks will be part of registration in 2018 - 2019 ).

Mouth guards need to be remoulded or replaced for the new season please.
The kids' teeth will have grown over the Summer!

We are always looking to recruit new players for the Minis!
Not alone are we looking for U7s to start with the club but any older age kids are welcome.
We had about 12 new boys start with the U11s and U12s last season for example - within a few weeks
they were 'flying it' with the other more experienced boys.
