The Waratahs Junior Rugby Club in 2024 is competing in a number of age groups following an alliance and mergers with other clubs prior to the start of the season in mid April..
An alliance with Lake Macquarie Juniors and Ironbark Juniors has resulted in the clubs fielding Under 8s, Under 10s and Under 12s in the 2024 season. The teams train on Tuesday at Walters Park 5-6pm and on Wednesday at Waratah Oval 5-6pm – they also have the option of training at Walters Park on Thursdays 5-6pm and an invitation is open to all young players interested in playing rugby to join a team.
