Juniors

Information

Welcome to the OCRFC Junior Section (Yr 7-10 at school)

This Page contains info on the BOYS Section.  (Click here For Junior GIRLS)  

A lot has changed since the Youth section started in 2002, not least the number of players.  We maintain our inclusive and fun ethos and are proud of our reputation as a family friendly club.  

Where are we each week?

Training times:   SUNDAYS From 11:30am – 13:00pm

Check out the  ‘Whats Going On?’ post if you are coming along to try us out to check if we are at Home or Away.


What is Junior Rugby?

U12s – U18s play 15 a-side full contact rugby, putting into practice skills/techniques gained through the minis with some key rules relating to scrummaging and line-outs being build upon as players progress towards adult rugby.

Membership & Registration

To benefit from all that our club offers and to officially play in matches and tournaments all players are required to become a member of the RFU & OCRFC.  This ensures that we can fulfil our duty of care to your child and that we are complying with our child welfare responsibilities.  

Head over to our Membership page for all the info.

Financial Assistance: 

We understand that paying for your child’s membership can be difficult at times and therefore we have 2 options available that might be of assistance.

      1. Paying by installments is available upon request

      1. We also have a club fund which can subsidise part or all of a player membership fees should they qualify.

    Your Team Manager can help with both options and if you are applying for club funding then you can also send them a completed Financial Assistance Form 


    Safeguarding (Player Welfare)

    We require our volunteers to hold a current DBS certificate, to have undergone a RFU safeguarding course and to follow club and RFU safeguarding policies.
