Rugby League Festivals
The Rugby Football League hold regular festivals throughout the North East for primary schools.
Our Community Rugby League Coaches provide a 6-8 week block of coaching to primary schools in a cluster area; at the end of the coaching block the schools then come together in a festival.
Within the Tyne and Wear area these winner's then proceed to the Tyne and Wear finals day held in July.
Currently the festivals are targeted towards Year 5/6, if you are interested in becoming involved with these festival please feel free to contact the relevant Community Rugby League Coach.
