NEW / PROSPECTIVE MEMBERS
2020/2021 Season
We are now pleased to start the player registration process for the 2020/21 Minis, Juniors and Colts season at Barnes! New players are very welcome at all ages.
Training will start on the weekend on 5/6 September, for those parents, players and coaches who want to. It will be different this, year, as we adapt to manage Covid risks and to follow the latest RFU guidelines for the return to rugby, but we are determined to offer the best rugby we can while emphasising health and safety of players, parents and coaches. We will follow the RFU Road Map for a return to rugby – as further explained on our News and Covid-19 pages – consistent with Government guidelines and with a number of significant changes.
Fundamentally, of course, no one displaying Covid-19 symptoms or required to self-isolate or quarantine should come to training.
We train as follows:
Minis – those at Primary School
train at the Barn Elms Sports Trust pitches on Saturday morning from 9:30am until 11am
Juniors & Colts – those at Secondary School, including the Girls section for U12+
train further down Queen Elizabeth Walk at the Barn Elms Sports Centre pitches on Sunday morning from 10am to 12pm.

Membership Subs cover all rugby-related costs including pitch hire, rugby balls, tackle pads and other technical kit, entry fees to all tournaments (most clubs make an additional charge), external coaches, the Return 2 Play concussion monitoring service, and the hot dogs we offer after some training sessions. Membership Subs also entitle the member to a discount on club kit purchased from our kit shops and drinks purchased at the clubhouse bar.
For players who have exceptional financial or personal circumstances that may prevent them from playing rugby at Barnes, we have an Exceptional Circumstances Scheme to reduce or waive any membership subs due. Please contact Charles Roberts, the scheme administrator, if you would like to take advantage of the scheme.
