The stories shared in the comments are heartbreaking. Kids belong on the field and not stuck in bureaucratic red tape.

Unbelievable that this is happening at an age where Rugby as a game loses talented players at this age group to outside interests? Words fail me !!
As the head coach at Jersey Marine youth, i would like to say how sad it is to see such lovely boys being denied to play our national sport #LetThemPlay #JerseyMarineYouth
It's a sad day when clubs forget that, at the root of all this is simply children who want to play the sport they love, not professional-level adults with complicated contracts.
Welsh rugby numbers are in massive decline and you are not allowing these boys to play for their chosen club , when the club stopping them playing already have around 30 players on their books . Madness
Absolutely disgusting behaviour from Bryncoch RFC. The boys don't want to play for their team so should let them go play where they want, grass roots rugby at this level is already in a bad state with teams in the area struggling for players, this type of behaviour will only drive them from the game.
