Cubs
The Cubs (U14) is for children aged 12 and 13. For the first time they play on a full field with 15 players per team. Again, the rugby-specific rules are more extensive than for the Minis (U12).
They play with an 8-man scrum and there is more focus on position-specific skills. Game tactics, teamwork and physical development are paramount during training and matches.
The game tactics and team play ensure that the players use the entire field. After all, a player cannot defend the entire field or score a try on his own. They really have to do it together now.
The physical development is mainly in the condition, after all the field has become twice as large.
Within this age group, physical growth spurts also begin, which also teaches them a lot mentally. After all, they sometimes play against 'bigger' players.
