Youth Rugby in Clondalkin RFC
Training is from 6.30pm to 7.45pm every Tuesday & Thursday in the club . Matches are generally on Saturday mornings. The default kick off time is 11.00am, but is subject to arrangement between the respective teams and also often determined by distance to travel and pitch availability.
You must always have gum shield and boots. You should always bring additional clothing like a tracksuit in case of cold weather – it is easy to take off a layer, but you can’t put one on if you don’t have it with you! (To be like Brian O’Driscoll or Sean O’Brien) the best athletic practices recommends that you bring your own drink (water is fine) and snack (apple or banana fine also) to take immediately after training/matches finish to feed the muscles to aid best recovery and development.
If you have any questions, please get in touch.

Why play rugby?
Many consider it the greatest team game of all. It’s a sport suited for people of all shapes and sizes, offering a never-ending, enjoyable adventure. Play for fitness, the thrill of competition, teamwork, and the friendships you build along the way. Fitness benefits your overall lifestyle and helps clear your mind. The excitement comes from competing with peers of your age in a controlled environment. Teamwork always outweighs individual efforts—while every player has their own strengths and weaknesses, true success comes when the team works together to be greater than the sum of its parts. Best of all, the bonds you form with your teammates will last long after the games are over.
