Predators try out new Under 10 rules !!

Tonight the predators try out the under 10's new rules for next season (for our first time we all did a great job).

Even though the local season has now finished we will continue to train on Wednesday up to the tour weekend when we will play our friends Narbeth.

We now need to practise the new rules during training and set the scene for next season. The main challenge is to start playing as a team and not as individuals. Players please note that Tony, Dave, Chris or I do not make the rules, they are set and reviewed each year by the Welsh Rugby Union.

I understand that you all have lots of passion and energy and we will try and tap into that over the next season, but we need to understand that a try is a try for the team and one player cannot win against an opposition of 10 will the same amount of energy as we have.

We still want to make the sessions as fun as possible, however it is essential for player safety that we are "rugby ready" at all times during games and training. i.e respectful of coaches, other players , parents and opposition teams, wearing the correct kit ( body armour, gum shields, scrum caps are all recommended )learn and listen as much as possible and most importantly keep safe by using the skills we passed on during the mini rugby years. Looking forward to tour Jon
