Following a successful inaugural year of the first ever national 10s rugby competition in 2008, the Heineken 10's returns bigger and better in 2009. With 15 tournaments planned nationwide between May and September, the first ever social rugby tens tournament of it's kind promises to attract even more amateur rugby players.
Hosted by rugby clubs across the country and played under the rules and regulations of the RFU, participation is free and entries are open to all amateur rugby clubs. Heineken prizes will be presented to victorious teams at each of the 15 festivals and there is also an overall prize of a major club legacy donation from Heineken for one lucky team across the competition.
To get involved, just fill out your details on the registration form on this website or email heineken10s@fstrk.com and we will contact you once your nearest host club for 2009 is confirmed. Teams need to be male, with between ten and 15 players - all of whom must be aged over 18. A deposit of £150 is required but this will be fully reimbursed once you arrive on the day of the tournament to play.
All participating teams will be kitted out in free Heineken 10's t-shirts and will each receive some free Heineken. All players involved in the Heineken 10's will also be treated to a complimentary BBQ at the end of the day.
