Leeds Rhinos Foundation is pleased to announce the details for our next programme of Rhinos Rugby League taster sessions at local community clubs across the city this half term.
Working in partnership with the charity’s Ambassador clubs, the Foundation run free taster sessions to help with recruitment for their youngest age groups and provide a fun introduction to the game for hundreds of children across the city who may be looking to try out a new sport or join a local team.
Our Rhinos Rugby taster sessions have had a huge impact already this year, introducing a total of 153 new players to the sport at grassroots level including 30 Girls for some of our Ambassador clubs running specific Women & Girls’ sections in Leeds.
These have helped to establish five brand new teams who were not previously running at Under 7s level, and clubs such as Morley Knights and Oulton Raiders were able to bolster their sides by welcoming more than 25 new players to training via our taster sessions.
All of our Rhinos Rugby taster sessions are free to attend with an emphasis on helping children to learn and understand the game’s most basic skills in a safe and relaxed environment. The coaching is incorporated into fun games which are suitable for players of all abilities and experience levels.
