Junior Club Rugby Information

Little Blues:

With the Blues Vs Rebels Super 15 match being played at North Harbour Stadium over the Easter break four North Harbour J5 rugby teams were given the opportunity to play the curtain raiser matches. These teams were North Shore Rush, Silverdale Green, Marist Blue and Massey Red.
Feedback from the coaches, parents and players is that they all enjoy the fantastic opportunity and thought the evening was brilliant no matter what the results were. Well done to all the players, coaches and parents for being so organised and supportive of the event.

“The purpose of North Harbour Junior Rugby is to give all players the opportunity to participate against others of a similar age and size and to assist in the progressive development of the necessary physical, social, emotional and mental skills as a foundation for enjoyment and continued participation in the game”.

NHRU Junior Rugby is played in accordance with IRB & NZRU “Laws of the Game” incorporating the Small Blacks Development Model guidelines.

Regular Saturday Junior Club Rugby is run in a non-competition format, meaning that while individuals, teams and clubs may record tries, conversions, wins, losses and points tables, the Union does not collect and collate scores, keep tables or team placing.

Players and coaches should strive to win, however it is the responsibility of coaches, referees, parents and supporters to assist all players in developing the fundamental skills required to play the game safely, with enjoyment and in accordance with the Laws of the Game
