About Our Rugby Programme

Our Rugby League sessions cater for players from 18 months through to open age, making rugby accessible to everyone in our community. Whether your child is taking their first steps or you're an adult looking to get back into the game, we have a place for you.

At The Hunslet Club, we believe in the development of the child as a player and as a person. Our programme emphasizes participation alongside competitive play, ensuring everyone gets the opportunity to enjoy the game.

Qualified Coaching

All our coaches are Rugby League qualified and DBS-checked, ensuring a safe and professional environment for all players. We've recently added coaches who specialize in developing younger children, providing age-appropriate sessions that make learning rugby fun.

Skills Development

Our rugby programme helps young athletes develop crucial life skills alongside rugby abilities:

• Social skills - Working as part of a team
• Agility - Quick footwork and movement
• Strength - Building physical fitness
• Balance - Core stability and control
• Coordination - Hand-eye coordination and spatial awareness

Age Groups

We run sessions for multiple age groups, allowing players to develop with peers at a similar stage. From our tiny tots sessions introducing basic ball skills, through to competitive youth teams and open age rugby, there's a pathway for everyone.
