The Stormers

Under 9

The Stormers are charging into their first season of contact rugby with energy, enthusiasm, and unstoppable team spirit. Having stepped up from tag rugby, they’re learning the skills and courage it takes to tackle — and loving every minute of it!

Each week they grow in confidence, play with heart, and bring their trademark determination to every match. Whether it’s training hard, chasing down opponents, or celebrating a well-earned try, this fearless crew always brings the thunder.

The Stormers are always looking for new joiners who want to have fun, make friends, and be part of something special — come and join the storm!

New Laws

These are the new laws introduced by the RFU at the Under 9 age group to help children play and develop their rugby skills, with each age group progressing incrementally through the game's core elements.

Tackling (introduction of contact)

Tackling is introduced at U9; progression and safety emphasis continue as players move up age groups.

  • Tackle must be below the sternum.
  • Once tackled, the ball must be passed either by the carrier or "scrum-half"
  • Tackler and ball carrier must follow release and ball-play laws;
  • High/dangerous tackles will be sanctioned.
