Dragon rugby

Gavin Henson in action for Wales

Fancy giving rugby a try? This could be just the game for you.

Aimed at the 7-11 age group, Dragon Rugby is different to the full game - but it's still a great way to learn all about the sport.

It'll help you develop your rugby know-how and give you a grasp of the physical and tactical skills required.

One of the scheme's biggest fans is Wales coach Mike Ruddock, who is a Dragon Sport ambassador.

"Rugby's a great way to get fit and spring is an ideal time to try out a new sport. Dragon Sport offers a safe environment to give rugby a go," he said.

Most local authorities in Wales have Dragon Sport co-ordinators who will be able to point you in the right direction and provide you with plenty of help and ideas.

Just click on the link below for more information.

The Sports Council for Wales will also be able to put you in touch with your local Dragon Sport co-ordinator.

You can contact them here:

Sports Council for Wales, Sophia Gardens, Cardiff CF11 9SW.
