JUNIORS

We welcome players aged 12-18 to our Junior rugby programs! Girls and boys teams are divided by gender and age, based on BC Rugby's age-grade variations: U14, U16 and U18.

Regardless of experience, the team welcomes and has a spot for everyone!

Early registration bonus If you register by June 30th midnight, you will be eligible to receive one of the following: United Hoodie (blue and burgundy) - picture attached - or a $30 credit towards United gear.

How Early Bird works:

If you are a new registrant, never played with Junior United Rugby then you will receive a United hoodie.
If you are a returning Juniors player, you will receive a $30 credit to be used towards a future purchase.
- Players with credits can accumulate them year-over-year but all credits must be used by your last year of eligibility for Juniors. Shop the United store during the season and contact treasurer @ unitedrugby.ca to arrange using your credit. This credit can be used towards shorts, hoodies, Kamloops fees, etc.
***Note*** You will be contacted after Early Bird registration closes to confirm your credit.

BCRU Kamloops 7s Tournament is scheduled for September 20-22, 2024. This is the only travel tournament we play in throughout the season. This is an amazing, optional opportunity to get to know your team, build team connections, and have a blast playing quick 7s games over the weekend. In 2023 our U14 girls and U18 boys placed 3rd! United historically tries to send at least one team for each age group. This will be confirmed once registration for the tournament is open. We have secured blocks of rooms at different hotels all close to each other. Keep an eye out for booking codes coming your way! Room bookings are first come first serve and we suggest booking early.

**This tournament is not mandatory.
