Farnborough Under 13/14

Welcome to a new season of rugby at Farnborough RFC with the Under 15's squad.
This year we will be playing in the Hampshire 3 division and look forward to a successful season building on the fine finish to last season. We play a variety of local and not so local club sides. The aim being to play all squad members during the variety of fixtures we arrange. We aim to develop all players to their maximum potential by building on their strengths and working on areas for development rugby is after all a team and hence a squad game.

Training focuses on both ball handling and distribution skills (running, passing), contact skills (tackling, rucking, mauling) as well as the set piece plays (8 man scrum and lineout), with the emphasis on enjoying the game. Positional play is important and the players are split into a forwards and backs division . At U15 the game progresses with strategy and heads up Rugby becoming a very important component of success on the field. The squad on a match days is as important as the starting line up with the use of tactical substitution during a match very much part of the modern game.

Thank you to our sponsors:

We are very proud to have 3 boys from our squad in Hampshire's elite player development group (EDPG) and hope to put more of the squad through this season. Additionally we are proud to say we had two finalist in the Hampshire Prop Idol challenge.

Training runs from 10:00 to 12:00 on Sunday mornings at Farnborough rugby club. We look forward to seeing you there.
