FAQ
Can my child join a team straight away?
That depends on current team availability for your child’s age group. Get in touch and we can advise on the best next step.
Can my child try a session first?
Yes. A trial session is a great way to see whether Rhinos is the right fit.
What if there is no team space right now?
If there is no current team place available, your child may still be able to join Training Only while waiting for a place.
Is Team Training suitable for beginners?
That depends on the age group and team space available, but we are always happy to advise on the best starting point.
What does the registration fee include?
For first-time players, the registration fee includes home and away kit.
Do you focus only on winning?
No. At Rhinos, development, confidence, enjoyment and inclusion matter more than win-at-all-costs football.​​
