Under 11s

Dear Parents,

Welcome to the under 11's team for the 2019/20 season.  To be eligible to play on this team players must be born in 2009.  We usually train on Saturday morning in the Drogheda Grammar School in Mornington from 10:00am to 11:30pm.  There will be a series of matches and blitzes played throughout the season against other clubs in the North East region.  Please Note that All rugby at this age is non-competitive, and the emphasis is on learning the skills required to play, having fun and inclusiveness.
