What's the Difference Between Rugby Minis Camps and Epic Camps?

Rugby Minis Camps are action-packed, fun-filled camps held at Newcastle School for Boys. Each day, we focus on our well-loved structured activities, including baking, arts & crafts, and sports. Our sports sessions center around our popular Rugby Minis themes, which we know children absolutely love.

Epic Camps, on the other hand, are our exciting new concept where children participate in a wide variety of sports, games, and activities. While Rugby Minis Camps are typically geared towards a slightly younger audience, Epic Camps offer a broader range of activities for older children.

Both camps welcome children aged 3-12, making it easy for siblings to join either camp and enjoy a great time together!

What ages do you cater to?

Our camps are designed for children aged 3 to 12 years old. We group children by age to ensure they participate in age-appropriate activities.

What activities does Rugby Minis Camps offer?

Our children have an amazing time during free-play, enjoying football, basketball, and a variety of other sports. During structured activities, they get to bake, create arts & crafts, and participate in our exciting Rugby Minis sessions, which focus on fun, teamwork, and the occasional water fight!

Do you provide food and drinks?

Children will need to bring a packed lunch, snacks, and a water bottle for the day. We encourage healthy eating and plenty of water throughout the camp.
