Regular practices are held in the Dubai area during the winter season, and games are played locally in domestic leagues, and internationally in festivals and tours.

The club instills and maintains a high standard of rugby evident by our recent success:

- Our mighty U15s also claimed the winning title as competition winners in the U16 Emirates Clubs Junior League. 

- Our junior teams also featured in all of the major 2009/2010 Gulf Junior Rugby Tournaments proving their skill and ability by bringing home several winners trophies and awards!

We welcome players of all ages, both boys and girls, to join us and enjoy The Spirit of Rugby.
