As summer holidays draw near, Richmond Rugby is excited to unveil a range of opportunities for young athletes to shine. Our Community Team has crafted a new programme of sessions to engage young players and elevate their game ahead of the upcoming season, as well as keep them entertained through the summer holidays.

As well as our ever-popular sports camps we're thrilled to introduce our new weekly skills programmes: Strength School, Speed School and Rugby Development Programme. Each is carefully tailored to cater to different age groups and skill levels. All these programmes and camps are open to members and non-members alike.

Progressive Programming: Our 9-week curriculum is designed to progressively challenge and inspire you. Each week builds upon the last, ensuring steady growth and improvement.

Safety First: Your safety is our top priority. We prioritise proper technique and form to minimise the risk of injury, and our trainers are certified in first aid and CPR for added peace of mind.
