The club also has a thriving mini and youth section with teams for boys and girls from age 3 to our U18 academy sides with over 700 young players on our books.
Some of our most recent success stories include England and British & Irish Lions full back Elliot Daly who started his rugby journey with Beckenham RFC, while Academy coach Phil Davies and Beckenham player Lamarr Sinclair took charge of Jamaica RFU U19s in the 2022 Americas North U19 Championship held in Jamaica. A number of Beckenham players were called up with Ben Hatfield being awarded "Most Valuable Player" by the USA Head Coach in the final.
