Colts rugby has been the lifeblood of the senior club for many years. It has been ran since its inception by John Clark, Jim Bell and numerous coaches who have ensured an excellent standard of colts rugby, huge enjoyment for innumerable youngsters, and a steady flow of talented players into the adult teams.

The whole Tynedale community has taken pride in the Colts set-up and the achievements of the players. The players come from mini and junior rugby, and from Hexham, Prudhoe and Haydon Bridge High Schools but any youngster, whatever his rugby background, will be welcomed at Thursday weekly coaching sessions. They will be able to particiapate in weekly matches with interesting fixtures in the Borders and throughout the region, and to take part in Sevens festivals at the start and end of the season.

Many players go on to represent Tynedale and the County in senior rugby - but all will admit to having enjoyed the opportunity to make new friends, travel and have a lot of fun - whatever their ability.
