 Every Guinness Premiership club as well as Cornish Pirates and Exeter Chiefs are taking rugby to hundreds of schools across the country through the EDF Energy National Schools Rugby Programme, one of the most comprehensive schools programmes in world rugby.
Community coaches work with primary school teachers and children - boys and girls aged 8-10, and EDF Energy make sure schools have the right equipment to go on and play the game for years to come.
They learn tag rugby, a non-contact version of the sport that teaches the skills to go on and play rugby union. Twenty schools even have the chance to play tag rugby at the EDF Energy Cup semi-finals at the Millennium Stadium and final at Twickenham.
