Venus Rugby

Frequently asked questions

I don't think I'm built for rugby, can I get involved somehow?

Rugby is a game for all builds, tall, short, heavy, small, super fit, or somewhat less-fit. There's sure to be a place for you on the team... why not give it a go?

Venus Rugby is a relatively new team and you'll find many of us are novices, still learning the game, so come along and meet us.

If actually playing isn't your thing, you can still train with us or join us as a social member.

What do I need to wear for training?

In the summer: Loose gym/running wear/shorts. Footwear: preferrebly molded football or rugby boots, but trainers are OK too.

In the winter: As the ground is softer, metal studded/bladed football or rugby boots are best. Shorts and a top to suit the weather; we train come rain or shine. Proper rugby shorts are quite important for contact work if you're going to come along regularly.

I've never played before, will you teach me?

I'm not sure I want to play yet. Can I just come to social events or your training sessions?

Yes, of course.
