Mystic Youth Rugby has become a summer tradition at Pine Banks Park! The program is primarily aimed at introducing local children to rugby and to provide them and their parents a greater understanding of the sport. Our Rookie Rugby program is all about children having fun and running with a ball. The major reason for our continued success is that it’s a LOT of fun! Unlike some other sports, rugby gets every child actively involved. This is wildly attractive to kids who have spent long days in an outfield or goal box waiting for something to happen. Everyone touches the ball in rugby and everyone can score points.

Our middle school tackle program is designed to teach new and experienced players the basic contact skills that they’ll need in order to participate safely in full contact rugby. As with our flag program, the emphasis is placed on fun and participation.
