Raring to go for our Inaugural Dings Crusaders Rfc season.

We're really pleased to announce our U11s group is now at capacity.

We have a great blend of players including those that have been playing for a number of years, as well as new, locally based, players to the sport.
We also have a great mix of boys and girls. This is essential as next season the boys and girls split. This will then become 2 teams the U12s boys and the U13s girls.
This season at U11s brings plenty to learn.
This is our 1st season of being able to kick in matches. Only from Hand.
We are also able to send in one extra player to the ruck area.
Finally we are able to contest the hook at scrum time. Still no pushing though.
The pitch size will be a max of 60x43m and we play 9 a side.

We have had 3 sunday sessions so far with the emphasis on getting to know each other, our new club, and having fun. The group have bonded very well, and as a group of coaches we are really looking forward to working with them to improve them as players and people.

The kids are already missing contact and can't wait to get stuck in, but for now we'll keep working hard on handling and spacial awareness.

Its a huge honour to be part of this great club.

Up The Dings!

Cheers

Steve Hayward
U11s Coach
