  • teams in all grades from Year 1 RipRugby to Year 7/8 Open Grade Tackle
  • family-friendly club rooms and regular Junior Nights
  • Free mouth guard, playing jersey (on loan for the season) and a free ball for the Little Rippas nursery grade

  • Little Rippas for kids aged 2 - 4 years - learn some basic ball skills and have some fun
