A close link between the youth and senior sections of the club is a proud tradition at Monks Lane and the youth section at Newbury RFC is no exception to this, the first team squad often help out with training as do the senior coaches at Monks Lane.

Famous quotes containing the words youth and/or teams:
“Where youth and diffidence are united, it requires uncommon steadiness of reason to resist the attraction of being called the most charming girl in the world.”
—Jane Austen (1775–1817)
“A sturdy lad from New Hampshire or Vermont who in turn tries all the professions, who teams it, farms it, peddles, keeps a school, preaches, edits a newspaper, goes to Congress, buys a township, and so forth, in successive years, and always like a cat falls on his feet, is worth a hundred of these city dolls. He walks abreast with his days and feels no shame in not “studying a profession,” for he does not postpone his life, but lives already.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
