Who For?
This is for children in year 5/6 who show outstanding commitment to clubs and/or PE lessons. This is suitable for children who will benefit from the additional challenge of competition against other schools. Children coming to this event should have prior experience of playing Tag Rugby and be confident in the rules.
n.b. please note that there will NOT be the option of a Tag Rugby Megafestival this year.
Resources will be shared for Tag Rugby activities which can be done in school with the children who are not coming to the event. Schools are invited to involve the whole class/year in the event by taking part in these activities on the same day.
Update: For those schools wanting to do some activities with the class back in school here is a link to the Kids First Skills Series;

There are 12 spaces available at the competition.
Only 1 team per school
