In the first round, both age groups took part, each playing four matches during the day. The competition in Kaunas provided an opportunity not only to test their abilities against opponents, but also to practically apply solutions developed during training.
The performance of the older age group was more solid – the team demonstrated better teamwork, a clearer understanding of the game, and more consistent decision-making on the field. This allowed them to achieve more favorable results and confidently begin the championship season.
For the younger age group, this round became a valuable learning experience. Although there was no lack of enthusiasm and effort in the matches, areas for improvement also became evident – decision-making speed, communication, and game discipline. Such competitions are an important part of the learning process and help young athletes grow both individually and as a team.
The first round of the championship in Kaunas became a strong starting point for the rest of the season. The experience gained, conclusions drawn, and clearer areas for improvement will be important in preparation for the upcoming stages. The 2026 TAG rugby championship has started actively, with many more opportunities ahead to improve and achieve better results.
