What to Expect

Each day is carefully structured to support both performance and enjoyment.

Athletes will work on:

• Core rugby skills including passing, decision-making and game awareness
• Speed, agility and movement foundations relevant to rugby
• Strength and conditioning fundamentals appropriate for age and stage
• Confidence, communication and teamwork

For example, a typical session may combine small-sided games with focused skill blocks, helping athletes apply what they learn in realistic match situations.

Athletes will be assessed using PlayerData GPS receiving a unique report with VALD assessment data to take away after the camp. All camp athletes will also receive a bespoke Athlete Focused training t-shirt.
