Age Groups
The Hong Kong Rugby Union (HKRFU) has decreed that all players must play in their correct age group. There are exceptions to this based on safety as noted below. Due to the limited numbers of players available at youth level throughout Hong Kong, Age groups are allocated to calendar years January to December. For clarity the age groups for the 2011 - 2012 season are:
-
2002 & 2003 - U9/U10 if your child was born in 2002 or 2003 / she plays for the U9/U10's
-
2000 & 2001 - U11/U12
-
1998 & 1999 - U14;
-
1996 & 1997 - U16
-
1993 & 1994 & 1995 - U19
Coaches and Team Managers
We have highly motivated coaches, including senior players from Hong Kong Cricket Club as lead coaches, and a team manager for each age group. On your first day of training please introduce yourself and your child to the head of the yeargroup, the team manager or the lead coach for the relevant age group.
Girls' Teams
Girl's rugby has the fastest-growing of all sections of the Hong Kong Rugby Union. For the past 4 seasons we have run U9/U10, U11/U12, U14, U16 and U19 girls' teams, which have had a great deal of success. We would really like to further develop our girls' teams this year and are looking for players and volunteers to support the existing coaches and promote the girls' game. Any and all girls who would like to have a go at playing the great team sport of rugby are welcomed to come down and give rugby a try.
Hong Kong Sevens Tickets
Membership gives players the opportunity to buy Sevens tickets. Please note however, that membership does not guarantee tickets as limited numbers of tickets only are available for distributio through the youth rugby. Watch out for an update on the HK7's on this website later in the season.
