We are excited to announce that our Spirit Sisters Girls Only Monday Night Tackle is Back for 2025!

This is a perfect opportunity for girls ages Year 5- 8 to give Girls Only Tackle Rugby a go!

This will be run as a 6 week mini Competition at Metro Clubs in May & June (Central dates coming in August!)

Participants can continue playing in their regular Saturday club competitions while also taking part in Monday night sessions, providing additional opportunities to gain experience and enhance their skills.

Each session will consist of two components: The first half of the session will be a specialised training session focused on skill development, particularly around tackle technique and game awareness. The second half of the session will finish with a mini game, where we will put the learnings from the training into action.

Teams and matchups will be organised on the day based on player numbers.

These sessions are aimed at helping current players continue to build their abilities while also offering a fun, safe, and developmental experience.

• Session One - Monday 12 May at Pirates RFC (Hancock Park)
• Session Two - Monday 19 May at Alhambra Union RFC (North Ground)
• Session Three - Monday 26 May at Dunedin RFC (Kettle Park)
• Session Four - Monday 9 June at Taieri RFC ( Peter Johnston Park)
• Session Five -  Monday 16 June at Zingari-Richmond RFC (Montecillo Park)
• Session SIx - Monday 23 June at Green Island RFC (Miller Park)

 You can enter as a Team or an Individual.  For more information contact Aria.Monaghan@orfu.co.nz.
