Rugby Kids in Canberra?

JeanPierre9 21 January 2012 21 January 2012 2

Hi,

My 12 yr son would like to join a team to play rugby, can anyone suggest or recommend a club or team in the North close to Gungahlin?

Thanks

Depending on were you live Uni-Norths junior rugby play and train at Southwell Park Lyneham. While Southwell park is closed for the upgrade the club trains at O’Connor oval and plays at Kaleen. It is a great club focused on the kids.

Of course if you live in Gungahlin the GUngahlin Eagles also have a junior rugby club that plays out of Nichols oval and I assume plays there.

Yep – the Gungahlin Eagles for rugby union and the Gungahlin Bulls for rugby league. They train at the back of Gold Creek School (Nichols sports fields)

Registration coming up for both in February sometime.
