Since its launch in 2018, Canterbury Give it a Try has grown into a nationwide initiative. This year, over 80 clubs will welcome young girls into the sport between May and June, to give rugby a try!

Designed for girls aged 8-14, the programme provides a structured and enjoyable introduction to rugby. Across eight weekly sessions, participants develop fundamental skills such as passing, catching, and teamwork while engaging in fun and inclusive activities.

Beyond individual development, Canterbury Give it a Try strengthens club connections with local communities. Since its inception, nearly 11,400 girls have participated at 148 clubs, with approximately 23% continuing as full-time club members.
