Absolutely yes. We encourage both girls and boys to play rugby as it is a great team game and helps develop confidence and physical/ social development.

No, we don't offer Free trial sessions at the moment. If your child(ren) don't enjoy the classes after week 4 you can ask for a full refund for the remaining sessions.

Half Backs operates an online payment section in the Book Now section.

We don’t move the child up without your permission and it really does depend on a number of factors. Such as whether we think they’re ready for the jump! Do they want to! But we do encourage children to move up when we think they’re ready to ensure they’re being challenged and progressing (But no pressure if they/ you don’t).

The youngest we will take is usually 24 months. Some children develop early so if you think your child is ready then bring them down, maybe for a trial first and see how it goes. The oldest children we take are 6years old as our Tigers group starts at 3 we find any older than this isn’t a challenging enough environment. We can recommend some great minis rugby clubs in the area if your child is too old though!

For the younger age group we ask parent's/carers to join the session. However for the Tiger group we ask parents/carers to stay outside the grid. We would like to encourage the Tigers group to be independent as much as they can be.

Yes. There is a café or clubhouse with toilets within 100 metres of our sessions.
