Under 12s

Welcome to the home of the Cheltenham Tigers Under 12s' Rugby Team

TEAM BIO

Tiger’s U12s has always been a fun and friendly squad, and one that has evolved to become one of the strongest in the region, and we’re always keen to welcome more! With a broad range of abilities, we’re as happy to introduce newcomers to the sport, as we are embracing those more experienced, looking to accelerate their growth.

Our philosophy is one of inclusion, leaving no one behind, lifting the team as a whole. We favour open, fast rugby, quick hands and even quicker thinking, and embodying rugby’s core values of teamwork, respect, enjoyment and discipline.

We’ve an amazing group of coaches, all parents, including some ex-players themselves, each sharing a singular focus on growing the team, looking towards not just this year’s fixtures, but also the years to come.

Come and have try out – it’s the ideal place for players to develop, to build confidence, to make friends and to have fun.
