Rugby

Currently, these developments in Miri comes under the "Rugby Development Academy/Program" which is being enforced this year by Coach Senin, Coach Zakaria, Coach Bunyamin and Coach Tim Lian. RDP is a program to introduce rugby to schools and to select players for future generation.

Touch
Touch is a minimal contact sport enjoyed by people of all ages, male and female, body size and fitness levels. The game is relatively new to the general public in Miri. Keeping this in mind, we are always willing to give assistance to schools and institutions should you wish to introduce the game as a fun extra-curricular activity. Please email MDRU or Miri Monkeys for details.
We are always on a lookout for new players to join our rugby and touch teams. Whether you are a complete beginner who has yet to learn the rules of the game, or an experienced player, or anywhere in between, please do not hesitate to contact us if you would like to join in on our activities!
