Get Involved

Do you want to help JAG Rugby? We are looking for 'pre-loved' rugby kits and related equipment our players could use, often need drivers to assist with transport and would love to expand with the help of additional coaches.

If you could help with any of these needs, or have ideas of how you could assist, please contact Barry Clarke by emailing rugby@jagfoundation.com
