Twickenham Rugby Football Club is one of the oldest Rugby Clubs in the world. Founded in 1867, we also have the most famous name
in World Rugby with a long and proud tradition. Despite being one of the oldest clubs, we are not one of the biggest but instead have a warm and friendly atmosphere which is the envy of many so called bigger clubs.
The Mini Rugby section was one of the earliest established and has been growing over recent years. Mini
Rugby is specifically designed to introduce youngsters to the game and can be played by both BOYS and GIRLS from the ages of six to twelve years. Children play in age groups at Under 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12
with special attention in ensuring that each child is matched by size as well as age. The youngest groups play a non contact game similar to touch rugby with
special emphasis on running and handling the ball rather than physical contact.
We are lucky at Twickenham in that we have a large number of experienced and trained coaches all of whom are understanding and aware of the needs
of developing children.
Training starts at 10.00am sharp,
and goes on to approximately 12.00am on Sunday mornings. Home games meet at 10.00 a.m. and start at around 10.30am and these are advised in the fixture list. The clubhouse is open all morning on Sundays with hot
snacks, TV, soft drinks and even a full English Breakfast available to those who would like to watch the training or games. At midday the club bar opens for the service of 'other' refreshments. As a club
member you are entitled to use the facilities whenever they are available.TRFC has a policy of encouraging all their players to play sporting rugby and does not support or encourage a "win at all costs" attitude in
their children
. Wherever possible we ensure that if a youngster
turns up to train then we will give them a game as we want the children to enjoy themselves and continue to play for many years to come. We encourage you to get involved with the club
including coaching the youngsters, for which full training is given.
Junior rugby is also thriving at TRFC with ages 13,14,15,16 playing regularly on a Sunday. We also run a number of senior sides of varying standards. If you would like more details, please contact us
