Supported by two wonderful sponsors in Rugby 1st and Harvey Norman, this Academy is aimed to create more opportunity for female youth to gain exposure to both 7’s & XV’s. The goal of this Academy is to develop & expand female youth with unique skills & knowledge of the game. From this we hope to encourage and empower female youth to consider and explore all pathway opportunities.
Furthermore, we would like to encourage local coaches to attend theses academies to be able to upskill themselves and have access to key pathway coaches.
We have enlisted the assistance of coaches from Elite playing groups such as the Wallaroos, Super W Waratahs, Rugby Australia & NSWRU to guide these female youth through specific skill and concepts of the game to better develop and expand their understand along with building confidence.
We hope to reduce barriers for female youth and their families by ensuring there are no costs involved for them to participate in this academy across the 4-weeks. Whilst walking away with more knowledge and confidence we would also like to provide those who attend with Official Academy Training Kit.
The Program will be run over four weeks in May and will be open to all Sydney based girls and their coaches in the ages of U14s through to Under 18s (ie Born 2004-2008). Girls whom are 13 years old and playing in the SJRU XV’s wave may also be open for inclusion.
