... and yes the Number 8 can pick up.

Its basically the full adult game without lifting in lineouts, or wheeling/pushing in scrums to any great degree.

hope this helps :-)

presuming your are talking about England there is no U13 continuum.

There are age grade regs, and these will be found at

http://www.community-rugby.com/communityrugby/index.cfm/Fuseaction/Home.Story/StoryTypeId/101/SectionId/1308/StoryId/11717.cfm

Your confusion however is perfectlu undersdtandable as it appears that the RFU's own website (community-rugby one) under referees and laws seems to indicate that the continuum runs u7-13, which speaks volumes for its webmasters/proof readers.

eg Can the no 8 pick and go for example?

Is there such a thing as a sheet that details the law changes as you progress up the age groups please? If so could any coach outthere let me have a copy or the benefit of their experience if they have been through it before!!
