Game Plan:

Louisiana Youth Rugby invites girls and boys ages 6-12 of all skill levels to join us for 6 weeks of flag rugby that will take place every Monday beginning January 30th and will wrap up March 4th at the City Park Rugby Pitch. Each week is a building block preparing each athlete to play flag rugby. Flag Rugby is a fun, fast-paced game that focuses on building skills, fitness, and teamwork on and off the field. Each athlete will be divided according to age and skill levels to not only learn skills of communication, leadership and teamwork, but to simply have a great time playing outside. Rugby also offers players increased confidence and self-respect, as the ultimate character-building sport. It fosters courage, fitness, team effort and togetherness, bringing together boys and girls from all backgrounds.

Equipment Needed:

* Tennis shoes (non-metal toed soccer cleats are recommended, but not necessary)

* Comfortable athletic shorts

* Waterbottle

* A great attitude to play!
