There are three different age ranges in our didi rugby program, but these age boundaries are very flexible and are based on the individual’s ability and confidence as opposed to their chronological age. This ensures that the program is personal to every child.
In all sessions there are two coaches to ensure that the session gives every child some all important one to one attention and tuition in each class, ensuring that even the shyest child feels part of our friendly team.
DIDI MINI
18 months - 36 months
This program aims to work on the basic components of fitness in terms of balance, co-ordination, speed and strength using lots of play and fun with rugby as our tool to deliver these skills.
DIDI JUNIOR
3-4 years old
This program follows on nicely from our mini program and aims to fill the gap between toddler play and school age games. We aim to further develop the basic underlying components of fitness in terms of balance coordination, speed and strength using play and rugby as our tool to deliver these skills.
DIDI SENIOR

This is our final stage of didi rugby and is really a stepping stone into the under 7 rugby playing age and/or other game activities.
