What we train

Build strong foundations

Five areas every young player needs before the contact starts. Each session works through them with age-appropriate, bodyweight exercises.

01

Neck control and stability

02

Shoulder and upper-back strength

03

Core and lower-back support

04

Glute and hamstring activation

05

Balance, coordination and body control

Why it matters

Rugby involves contact. Preparation matters.

Tackles, rucks and scrums put real load on a young body. A stronger neck, shoulders and core, and better control of how they move, give players a better base to handle that load.

  • Injury awareness
  • Stronger movement
  • Brighter tomorrows
