Hawkes Bay Junior Rugby grades are restricted by age and weight. 

In 2025, Rugby is available to Year 7 and Year 8 pupils. Placement in a team will depend on the number of children wanting to play.  If numbers are insufficient to field a team in a particular grade, students will be able to play for a local club.  

Prep Teams will be selected from Saturday teams prior to scheduled mid-week fixtures.

Rugby is played on Saturday mornings at various club grounds throughout Hawke's Bay.
