Reds U16 Team

The Reds U16s train on Tuesday and Wednesday nights between 6pm and 7-30pm on Lower Mains Park.

In poorer weather they will train INDOORS instead, so it’s always worth bringing indoor footwear for the 3G surface.

U16 COACHES: Roddy Keith, Ally Rae, Stuart Ritchie (lead coach) and Nick Drainey (plus Paul Saunders + Graham McCorkell who are missing from photo)

Ally Rae is the main admin contact

Law Variations

Rugby is now played to the laws of the full adult game, with a few minor variations:

The game is played over a maximum of 70 minutes, usually 2 x 35 minute periods,

Scrums can only travel 1.5 metres and wheel through 45 degrees,

Defending scrum halves cannot advance beyond the halfway point of a scrum until the scrum is over.
