Youth Rugby note: Unfortunately the Firebirds youth rugby division (U8 to U14) is currently dormant and we are looking for new leadership to take the program forward. Anyone interested in leading the youth program (administration as well as coaching roles are vacant and need filling for the youth program to be successful), please email us as phoenixfirebirdsrugby@gmail.com to log your expression of interest.
This website will stay updated with news and updates so be sure to check here or the Firebirds Facebook page for the latest info.
Why should you consider rugby as a new sport to play?
Rugby values teamwork, builds fitness and endurance, develops the hand-eye coordination, motor skills, decision making skills and dexterity to be able to run and pass and THINK all at the same time.
Everyone is on the field all the time and is on offense and defense to run, catch and pass the ball, and score!
World Rugby's Core Values are Integrity, Passion, Solidarity, Discipline and Respect. These Values guide the Phoenix Firebirds in our mission to promote a healthy active lifestyle, foster the virtues of teamwork and cooperation, and develop athletic skills for boys and girls through playing the sport of rugby.
