🏉 Burnaby Lake Rugby Club Youth Program

Rugby is fast-paced, exciting, and full of teamwork—but it also requires mastering technical skills. Our youth program introduces players to the game gradually, following Rugby Canada’s Long-Term Rugby Development (LTRD) model. This 8-stage pathway supports growth from basic physical activity to elite-level play, focusing on developmental age rather than just chronological age.

🌟 Mini Rugby (Ages 5–12 | Kindergarten–Grade 7)

Kids learn rugby through fun, age-appropriate games that build movement, ball-handling, and teamwork. Younger players focus on non-contact skills, while older ones begin learning passing, running, and tackling.
