Mini & Youth
The Mini & Youth (M&Y) are the life’s blood of Canterbury RFC and we offer a very clear pathway from U6 to Colts and the senior teams. Working with qualified coaches, our approach is one of learning skills whilst having fun. Progression through the age groups is key so we focus on the appropriate areas of the game at each level, equipping each player with what they need as they move up through the age groups.
Our training takes place at the Marine Travel Ground where we have all the amenities both player and parents might need. We welcome players of all abilities and experience as community and inclusivity are at the core of our club values.
Contact our M&Y Chairman to find out more – youthchair@cantrugby.co.uk.
