The U6's are not covered by the RFU's Continuum which covers children from U7's (after their 6th birthday) to U12's, but they are covered elsewhere by the RFU's guidance for very young players in Rugby Union which states.

• Children should be provided with rugby related activities in a safe, enjoyable and un-pressurised environment. The format should be designed to give these children confidence in carrying out basic movement skills, in the context of fair play, sharing and co-operation.
• Children should be taught to:
  • a) Develop a broad range of skills in preparation for rugby, including evasion and invasion running, jumping, passing and receiving.
    (These should improve their agility, balance, coordination and communication).
  • b) Take part in simple activities involving individual and co-operative play.
  • c) Listen to and respond readily to instructions and signals within established routines.
  • d) Recognise and follow both the relevant rules and the safety procedures for rugby related activity.
• Children should be given specific guidance on the skills they need to use and how to use them correctly, as well as positive feedback and praise. (Children should have an opportunity to watch others and copy them).
• Children may be given an early introduction to Tag Rugby in preparation for Continuum age grade Under 7 Mini Tag. Children need to spend time learning how the game works and its laws, so they become familiar and confident with the game before joining those who are more experienced.
• Parents/guardians should be strongly encouraged to remain on the premises throughout.
• Whilst all children will normally start activities at the same time, their parents/guardians should be instructed that they may withdraw them at any time during the session provided they make it clear that this is what they are doing.

IT IS IMPORTANT FROM THE OUTSET to promote the "spirit of rugby" with both children and their parents/guardians. These wider values of the game include enjoyment, teamwork and respect for the efforts of others. All activities should be directed to encouraging all children to participate and progress. The club should also encourage adults to become involved and provide those that volunteer with practical support.
