The 42nd Kent County RFU Mini Rugby Festival will be held on Sunday 23rd March 2025. The Kent County RFU Mini Chairperson, Dawn Waters is looking for eight hosts to work with her to deliver the highest standard of festival for the five mini age groups as follows:-
Age Group | No. Venues | Min Teams | Min Pitches | Max Teams | Max Pitches | No. Team Players | Min Visitors | Max Visitors |
U7 | 2 | 25 | 6 | 50 | 12 | 6 | 375 | 875 |
U8 | 2 | 35 | 8 | 40 | 10 | 10 | 875 | 1000 |
U9 | 2 | 15 | 4 | 50 | 12 | 12 | 450 | 1,500 |
U10 | 1 | 50 | 12 | 60 | 14 | 14 | 1,750 | 2,100 |
U11 | 1 | 40 | 10 | 50 | 12 | 16 | 1,600 | 2,000 |
Please note that all figures above are estimated using previous seasons figures. Some venues can prove more popular than others, but the Kent Mini Chairperson will work with all successful hosts and will not expect them to host beyond their capacity and that all host clubs will need to have extra pitches set up for any emergency needs should a game or games needing to be moved to another pitch. These additional pitches have been included in the figures above.
Each host club will need to provide adequate parking that suits all weathers or includes a wet weather plan if necessary. This will need to accommodate between 150 and 500 cars depending on the age group that they are hosting.
