Leinster Rugby and PlayRugby.org are delighted to be working together again to offer Rugby and English Camps for the seventh year running.
The Rugby and English programme is open to students who wish to develop their English language and improve their fundamental rugby skills.
Throughout the week the players gain a real insight into the core values of Leinster Rugby. They will be coached in a professional environment to give them an understanding of the fundamental values of teamwork, commitment, integrity and communication.
Players will learn to play the Leinster way, while living in an international rugby environment, giving them the chance to making friends with other rugby players coming from all over the world.
All participants will be assisted, trained and guided by professional Leinster Rugby coaches. The coaching sessions are designed to advance the players in the development of fundamental individual skills. The aim is to the put these skills into practice and improve through game-based activities.
