Up & Under is the best academy for girls. My daughter touched a rugby ball for the 1st time in March 2023 and with the guidance from the coaches and team she is Loving the sports. She's an introvert so we are shocked to see how much this sports has brought her out of her shell. Coaches Viaan the Shamiel makes the girls feel like they part of a team and always looking out for their best interest...that's amazing.

I discovered Up and Under while searching for possible coaches for my girls primary school who wanted to start offering girls rugby. Coach Viaan was so helpful and assisted setting this up at our school. My twins enjoyed the rugby so much that they joined the Ladies Rugby Academy to continue training throughout the year.
Coaches Viaan, Shamiel and Marius have such a positive and fun style of coaching. You can see that every girl there is having the best time learning. The focus is on rugby skills and teamwork. It's heartwarming to see kids from 11 to 18 practicing together, cheering each other on and learning from each other. I haven't seen such a positive and uplifting coaching technique and bunch of athletes in a long time. I love it, it's the best possible environment for my girls to make new friends, learn new skills and experience comradery.
