Bridgwater and Albion Rugby Union Football Club Youth Section is an open club for anyone aged 5 to 17 wishing to play Rugby Union in the Bridgwater area. Originally founded in 1875, the club has continued to grow and now runs Colts, Junior and Mini teams in addition to Senior sides.

The Mini section caters for boys and girls from the age of 5-12 who learn a scaled-down version of the game. Players from 13 years and up play Junior rugby. We generally play or train on a Sunday with timed year group slots from 9:15am to 1:45pm between September and April.
