FAQ

We have lots of girls playing rugby at the Bullsharks and want to encourage more girls to give it a go.  Once our female players are 11yo, there are more playing and training options geared towards female-specific competitions.  For more information, please email .

Competition rules state that children have to have turned 5 years old to play in under 6s. Younger children are encouraged to participate in Puppies until then. 

Our Bullsharks teams finish at U12s (children turning 12 in the calendar year). Players turning 13 will need to register for Junior Heavies

No experience is needed – it’s never too late to give rugby a go. We have experienced coaches and resources to help children quickly learn the ins-and-outs of playing rugby.
