Top of the table and last year’s champions Saracens travel to the Stoop to face mid-table Harlequins this Saturday at 2pm. The Quins got off to a shaky start this season losing their opening match 14-28 to Worcester Warriors. However they were back on form last weekend against a determined Loughborough Lightning and a late try from Izzy Mayhew sealed the 24-15 win.

Saracens couldn’t have started their season off better with back-to-back bonus-point wins against Wasps and Loughborough. Although many of the Red Roses are on a break since the World Cup, Saracens still boast some exceptional international’s with the likes of Georgia Evans & Kat Evans (Wales,) and Louise McMillan (Scotland) in their squad this weekend.

Camaraderie and teamwork are vital skills in most team sports, but none to the same extent as in rugby union.

From boisterous Saturday-league club houses, to schoolyard games of touch, to lining up for your country in the 6 Nations, union is a sport of skill, bravery and strength.

And if you're more interested in throwing a ball around there are plenty of options for you, from the aforementioned touch, where tackling is banned, to light-hearted options like beach rugby.
