Northampton Saints will be running a 1-day camp at Brackley Rugby Club. Children aged 6-16 will get the chance to be coached by Northampton Saints Community staff and get a feel for what it is like to be part of a Gallagher Premiership Club.
Inspired by our desire to encourage and develop young talent, our coaches have developed a suitable programme to continually challenge young people and give them a worthwhile rugby experience.
Children will get the chance to see the Northampton Saints squad in training, as well as develop their understanding of the game through a variety of activities and game situations. Training is structured into two sessions throughout the day with specific outcomes agreed by coaches. Coaches challenge the children to decision make and adapt to new scenarios, aiding their player development. Saints Community strive to help all participants reach their full potential, no matter if they have played rugby before or not.
Northampton Saints camps are assisted by professional players (subject to availability) who share the common passion for rugby. The players spend time answering questions asked by the children as well as showcasing their own training tips and techniques.
All participants will require the following:
- Rugby clothing(suitable for both wet and warm weather conditions)
- Mouthguard and any other preferred protective equipment
- Appropriate footwear for all ground conditions (metal studs, moulded studs, trainers)
- A change of clothes and footwear.
- Plenty of water
- A Packed lunch
