Please note that not every boot is Rugby legal. You should not use soccer boots or bladed boots under any circumstances.

Check your boots regularly. Replace worn or abraded studs immediately. You should not let your child wear their boots off the pitch. Avoid walking on concrete or road surfaces which will wear down the studs. Worn or sharp studs can seriously injure another player. Soccer blades can be razor sharp. Avoid use of these boots at all costs.

Think Safety.

The wide variety of boots, studs, blades, brands and designs available make it almost impossible to cover every single variation. The table below provides some examples of legal, illegal and questionable studs and blades. It is not a definitive list nor does it provide any approval for a particular type of stud or blade.

A "'legal" stud may be burred or shaped which makes it potentially dangerous and illegal.
