NOLA Gold Jr. Rugby League

NOLA Gold is happy to announce the launch of the Jr. Gold Rugby League.
The Jr. Gold Rugby League runs from January 30th through March 9th. No previous playing experience is required and the league is open to boys and girls ages 6-12.

Our mission is to develop young rugby men and women by providing them opportunities to learn fundamental rugby skills, running, passing techniques, teamwork and sportsmanship. The Jr. Gold League is designed to give participants an opportunity to be coached by current NOLA Gold professional players and coaches. We aim to develop local youth and provide a pathway for players into Louisiana high school rugby.

The Jr. Gold Rugby League will consist of school-grade divisions. Emphasis will be on safety and ultimately having fun, while the use of flags limits physical contact.

The Jr. Gold League will have practices on Wednesdays leading up to the games on Saturday (dates below). T-shirts will be provided. Participants are encouraged to bring comfortable athletic attire, cleats and mouthguard (if desired).

Practices will be held at Gretna Park: 860 Gretna Blvd, Gretna, LA 70053. (Between Gretna BMX Park and Gretna Middle School)
