About the team

Welcome to the TJs U8s! Our team is for children born between September 2017 and August 2018. We’re a lively, energetic bunch, full of enthusiasm and ready to take our rugby up a notch!

At this stage, we focus on developing core skills like passing, evasion, support play, spatial awareness, and learning the key rules of the game (like knock-ons and no forward passes!). All of this happens within a non-contact, tag rugby format (we’ll save the contact for next year in U9s!). It’s a year of growing confidence, building friendships, and strengthening those all-important rugby foundations: Teamwork, Respect, Enjoyment, Discipline and Sportsmanship.

We love putting our skills into action at tag matches and local festivals throughout the season, and we finish the year with an epic rugby tour — a brilliant way to celebrate all the fun, friendships, and muddy memories we’ve made!

Why join our U8s?
Fun, fast-paced sessions that keep everyone moving
Builds physical fitness, coordination, and decision-making
Encourages communication, teamwork, and resilience
Great preparation for U9 contact rugby
Supportive, welcoming group (for players and parents alike)
Regular matches, tag festivals, and an end-of-season tour!
Whether your child is new to the game or has a season or two under their belt, there’s a place for them here. Join us and get stuck in!

If you’d like more information on training days, timings, or anything else, just get in touch – we’d love to hear from you at: Minis1718@tjrfc.co.uk.
