The Rugby Eagles Luxembourg have designed a child-centered Rugby project based on a unique approach and it's all about fun when playing Rugby.

This approach mixes non-contact forms of Rugby for youngster players with traditional forms of Rugby for the more experienced players and uses a specific coaching method that helps children develop into autonomous, creative and decision-making players.

We do not have a “win at all costs” mentality because developing players and young people is not all about winning but more being part of a team, developing friendships and learning together. The competitive factor of the game is lowered down to its minimum so that every child can improve at her/his own pace without excessive pressure, which can undermine children's development. Rugby is anyway a late specialism sport and early specialisation mainly promotes adult values and interests, not those of children. Most experts recommend that the real competition should wait until when players have matured and this approach is consistent with the approach followed by some national federations (England, New-Zealand, etc.). For example, the Eagles do not believe in the myth of the sport pathway and, hence, do not participate in junior representative teams.

The Rugby Eagles Luxembourg are based in the commune of Kopstal-Bridel, which is ideally located as it offers a fantastic natural environment, is very close to Luxembourg, Mamer, Mersch, etc. and is easily reachable by public transport.
