INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS BARBARIANS
“The Heads of Rugby of a number of independent schools are keen to give above average performers the opportunity to play a higher standard of rugby and develop as players while maintaining the educational ethos of the schools they attend. They feel that a representative game would give players an incentive to achieve something higher than a first XV honour, while providing an additional opportunity for club and representative side coaches to watch them play at a truly competitive level.”
Roger Uttley OBE – President

SCHOOLS BARBARIANS RUGBY
"The Schools Barbarians was established in December 2006 at a meeting at Harrow School. It is a non-profit making organisation that has been set up to further the rugby playing opportunities of Independent and Prep School Rugby Players. Its aim is to provide these boys with exciting opportunities in rugby, to help them develop as players and to keep their passion for the game alive beyond the school playing field."
Chris Terry - Chairman
The Barbarians need your help to fully achieve this aim and by becoming an Honorary Vice-President you can help the Barbarians develop and grow into a great rugby institution. For further information please click on the link below: |
PREP SCHOOLS BARBARIANS
"Due to the success of the Independent Schools Barbarians and the interest in it from a number of Prep Schools, The Schools Barbarians have now also set-up the Prep School Barbarians in conjunction with Chris Hoy, Director of Sport at St. Piran’s Prep School. This new venture will run on very similar lines to the senior model, aiming to give the boys it involves enjoyment and the chance to play at a level beyond school level. In 2008 two exhibition games one at U11 and one at U13 were played on the Sunley Field at Harrow School with around 20 schools initially being involved. This first experiment with younger age groups was a great success and therefore The Prep Schools Barbarians is now intending to duplicate the model trialled at Harrow in the North, the Midlands and the South West."
