Junior’s History
Our Juniors program (like many) began informally as members of the LA Crude coached the local high school and junior high rugby teams in Leduc and surrounding towns like Beaumont and Devon. This eventually grew into offering minis and juniors games and festivals within the Edmonton Rugby Union. Each year we see our program grow - with over 100 kids playing rugby each year.
