Stillorgan RFC - Tots Rugby (For Ages 2-5 Years) 

In autumn 2016 the club launched a 'Tots' programme for children of current club members aged in the 2-5 years range. The programme is run in an indoor sports hall in Rathfarnham on Sunday mornings throughout the school term.

The aim of the programme is to introduce young children to the sport of rugby in a safe, gentle and encouraging environment. Over 20 children have joined up for this year's programme. 

Activities include:

- Running with a ball, catching and passing; developing 'hand-eye' coordination. 

- Kicking a rugby ball and 'tag rugby' for tots. 

- Other non-rugby games including children's parachute game, 

- Seasonal activities including a Christmas Party and visit from Santa Claus. 

The programme is professionally run by our club coaches, who have been Garda Vetted. 

Stillorgan RFC Chairman Mark Cooling is delighted with the new venture, stating: 

"We're really happy to get SRFC Tots off the ground. The programme is professionally run and offers the opportunity for sons and daughters of the Stillorgan RFC rugby family to become involved in the club. There is a great enthusiasm for the programme, so much so that we are considering offering the programme to the wider community in the future".

Tots Rugby is fully subscribed for the 2016/17 term. Places may become available for the school year 2017/18 - to express interest in your child joining the programme please contact us.

Stillorgan RFC would like to express gratitude to KBC Bank for their sponsorship of this programme.
