Rhino Rugby Balls, Kicking Tees & Training Gear

Rhino Rugby is one of rugby's best-known equipment brands, supplying balls, kicking tees and training gear across club, school and international rugby. Its Cyclone training ball is a staple of squad sessions, and the Dave Alred kicking tee is used by professional kickers.

Match and skills balls — Reflex training balls and sponge rugby balls for underage and indoor skills work
Kicking tees — Rhino Pro adjustable and Dave Alred signature tees
Sustainable range — Zephyr and Reflex recycled balls made with recycled materials

Rhino Rugby: common questions

What rugby ball size should each age group use? Size 3 suits under-9s and below, size 4 covers roughly under-10 to under-14, and size 5 is the full senior match size used from under-15 upward.

What is the difference between a Cyclone and a Cyclone XV? Both are training balls. The Cyclone XV uses a grippier surface pattern aimed at handling drills in wet conditions, while the standard Cyclone is the general-purpose squad training ball.

How does Rhino compare to Gilbert? Gilbert is the official match ball supplier to World Rugby competitions and sits at the premium match end. Rhino is strongest on training volume — durable squad balls, ball packs and kicking tees at club and school budgets.
