new mini-rugby!
This will be the third year that the Ottawa Indians will be offering a Mini Rugby Program. It is co-ed with a Flag Rugby program for kids 4-10 and an introduction to Tackle Rugby for kids 11-14. Rugby is a great way for kids to get some exercise, make new friends and learn a new and exciting sport. Kids will learn the basic rules of rugby as well as basic ball handling skills, and tackling in a safe learning environment.
Our season will start May 20th and go til July 29th. Practices are run every Thursday nights (except for Canada Day) from 6pm-7:30pm at Whalen Park in Kanata. All costs will cover insurance, a t-shirt and rugby ball for each of the kids to take home. There are 2 tournaments that we will be participating in: June 13th in Montreal and July 18th at Twin Elm Rugby Park near Richmond.
To register please drop by Whalen Park on Thursday, May 13th from 6-7:30pm.
