Thinking about it for three year old ds but wavering when I saw the cost, especially for the kit. Would live to hear if any of your dc enjoy or enjoyed it.

You can join real rugby clubs when they are four. I prefer the real thing rather than these setups.

DS used to do it from 2.5 to about 3.5. He loved it! It was expensive though. DS enjoyed it and paid attention to the coach but a lot of the kids just ran around the hall which is totally to be expected given the age, it was just a load of money to pay to let your kid run around a community hall for half an hour!

My DS1 started rugby when he was in Year 1 at the local club. Some of the boys started when they were in Recpetion.

TBH I think I would wait till he can join and play at a club.

Thanks all! Ds did his first rugby tita on Saturday and loved it. Like all these thungs it depends on the enthusiasm of those running it and their warmth with little ones. These two towering men had both in spades. We'll be looking into "proper" clubs if he carries in enjoying it.
