Curriculum

We are in a very unique position to provide young girls with a life-changing experience through rugby. Try on Rugby has put together an extensive curriculum that introduces aspects of rugby, fitness and nutrition, and life skills for girls under the age of 18. Each portion includes lesson plans and worksheets for six weeks.
