    Rugby For the Very Little Ones

    So the missus thinks it's time for junior to start getting into some sort of semi organised sport - he's 5 in a couple weeks...

    Just got of the phone to the helpful folks in Community Rugby at RugbyWA - seems Perth-Bayswater, Wanneroo and University had an unofficial under 6's comp last year - lets hope they do the same again, saves me having to beat one of the other codes out of him at a latter date

    BTW - I'm sure everyone who needs to know does already, but Club Registration day is on the 24th February - looks like me boy might be a Perth player ...

    Under 6's, that would be a laugh to watch
    The country little dudes in Aussie Rules is always great entertainment.

    LTP, I nearly gave you some points onto your rep but then gave myself a good upper cut.
    Good on you anyway and please teach them to score tries

    You've just reminded me of the great days...two in fact.

    When each of our lads played his first game as a 5 year old.

    They may not have known exactly what to do, but they were out there.
    And then to see them and their team-mates develop, worthwhile indeed.

    Happy days.

    ive coached from U7's to now U9's for 4yrs now and you must send your kid out to interact with other budding Wallaby players. you should see how confident kids can get at this age. At Palmyra we have 2 new U6 teams starting this year.
