What is Kids First?

AltText

WELCOME! 

Kids First puts children first.

Aimed at U7-U13 boys and girls, it upskills coaches and creates a great rugby environment, so that everyone stays in the game for longer.

Are you a club or school that commit to?  

  • Put children at the heart of everything we do.
  • Encourage fun on the pitch through equal opportunity and realistic expectations of children.
  • Build the skills of our adults to provide a safe, healthy, respectful and enjoyable environment for children.
  • Develop children’s confidence and character as players and as people, challenging any behaviour that conflicts with this.
  • Champion rugby’s Core Vales inspiring a lifelong bond between children, adults and sport.

By committing to the above you join a community of over 1000 like-minded clubs and schools around the country who are delivering Kids First Rugby.

To support you we’ve created a series of resources to help, from coaching ideas through the Kids First Skills Series, Curry Nights, social media resources and other useful resources such as our competition guide to help organise events in-line with the Kids First philosophy.

For those coaching, teaching or refereeing Kids First Rugby, please check out our Kids First training courses for coaches and teachers.
