Juniors Boys
We have now finished the 2024 season.
Midweek training will resume in January. Saturday training will resume in the Summer term.
Year 6 to Year 11
Our Juniors section has teams at U12 (Years 6&7), U14 (Years 8&9), and U16 (Years 10&11). It is made up of players of all abilities and experience levels who are working hard to improve their skills and abilities on the pitch. We emphasize teamwork, sportsmanship, and a positive attitude, helping our players develop not only as athletes, but also as individuals.
Our U14s did the league and cup double in 2024 after an unbeaten season, and the U12s reached the final of the London Junior League. We will be looking for new players for all three age groups next season.
How to Join
We welcome all boys in school years 6 to 11 to come and play rugby league and to make new friends. Please register your interest by completing the online registration form.
We use the Spond app to manage communication and share information about training sessions and matches. Download: Apple, Google. Join with group code YOVJC.
The first two sessions are free. After that we ask for an upfront payment for the season. This is £110 from January, £85 from April, or £70 after the May bank holiday. There is a 50% discount for siblings. For those that would like to participate in pre-season training before they commit to the full season we charge £35 for January to April.
Players will also need to pay a £16 registration fee to the RFL in order to play matches.
If you have any questions, please email us.
Where and When
In 2025 our U12, U14, and U16 teams will play in the London Junior League with competitive matches most Saturday mornings during the summer term. We play our home games at Streatham & Croydon Rugby Club, CR7 7JW.
Pre-season training for secondary pupils will begin on the 7th January and run until the 1st April (excluding 18th February).
Sessions will run Tuesdays from 7pm to 8:30pm on the cinder pitch at Tooting Common (by the Triangle Playground near Balham).
From April to July we will have midweek training at Streatham Common (day of the week TBC).
What to Bring
Players should ideally have studded boots, a gum shield, and suitable clothing to play in. Bring a bottle of water and a snack as needed.
We provide match shirts for festivals. We have a club shop for those that would like to buy training gear.
Be aware that rugby is played in all weathers and conditions. Players should ensure they have sufficient layers of clothing, dependent on the weather, including waterproof kit for when it rains.
