Bishopton Rugby Micro Section, welcomes all enthusiastic participants of primary school age, P1 – P3, boys and girls. We meet for 1 hour sessions every Sunday at 11:00am during term-time, at Holmpark playing fields in Bishopton.
Bishopton Rugby Club takes pride in offering FREE junior rugby training and stands by our mission “Rugby for all ages”. We simply couldn’t operate like this without your kind donations and our fantastic volunteers.
All our training sessions are run by accredited coaches with the Micro Section welcoming children from all backgrounds and abilities. Our sessions are focused on developing physical confidence by working on basic running, jumping, kicking, throwing and catching skills in a series of fun, non-contact games. Places will be limited to 10 children per coach, so if you are interested in registering your child, then please let us know by sending an email to mini@bishoptonrugby.com
For all child protection queries please contact our child protection officer at CPO@BishoptonRugby.com

Boot Bin
When your child gets too big for their boots, we have a “boot bin” so the boots can get passed on. Any boots, in reasonable condition, can be donated to the club and used by a new set of feet. With little feet growing fast, it can be costly to keep their boots fitting correctly. We hope this helps and by giving a little donation to the club for each pair taken, means we can pay for new equipment, indoor winter training and subsidise playing tops.
