 Welcome to the Tumut Bull Ants Tumut Junior Rugby Union Club, the "Bull Ants", is a successful club that aims to introduce young players to the game of rugby union in a friendly and enjoyable club atmosphere. Formed in 2004 the club fields teams in the Under 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 age groups of the Southern Inland Junior Rugby (SIRU) competition. In 2010 the mighty U9's were third in the competition behind Wagga W who finished at the top of the ladder and Wagga B who ran second. The under the old "even age groups" the U10s and U12s both won thei Bullants lost on points for and against despite beating Wagga W 110 to 10 in their final match. The SIRU Junior competition is played every second Sunday in a Gala day format which means less travelling for parents and more rugby for players. Because of the Gala day format even the teams that do not have a full contingent of players get a game because they can combine with other teams. Home games are played at the Bull Paddock with training taking place at Jarrah Oval each Tuesday from 5-6.
For those players that are interested in taking their game further the club also provides the opportunity to be selected to play as a representative in regional level competitions. Club members have represented at SIRU, Brumbies Provincial, Brumbies, ACT Schools, McKillop and NSW PSSA level. You can find out the latest information about the club’s activities from the News Flash links on the right side of this page. Local businesses that kindly support the Bull Ants are also listed on our Sponsors link. New players are warmly welcomed to the club and can just come along on any training day during the winter season to take part in "the game they play in heaven".
