Leeds Rhinos Foundation is pleased to announce that we are running another Player Development Day at Leeds Rugby Academy during the February half term holidays.
Both sessions take place on Wednesday 23rd February at Kirkstall and are open to aspiring young rugby players who are looking to improve their core rugby skills and reach their full athletic potential in a professional environment.
First up will be the Girls sessions for any players in the Under 11s, Under 12s, Under 13s, Under 14s age groups, before we run our Boys session in the afternoon for those currently playing in Under 15s or Under 16s teams.
We are delighted to ensure that these open access development sessions will be once again completely FREE to attend, with all players given the opportunity to train in the Rhinos’ first class facilities with coaches from Leeds Rhinos Foundation and Leeds Rhinos’ Scholarship and Women’s teams.
So far, more than 450 boys and girls have attended one of our Player Development Days, which are part of the award-winning England Talent Pathway scheme designed to improve standards throughout the community game at ages 12-16.
Harvey Whiteley, Rugby League Development Officer for Leeds Rhinos Foundation, said: “Our Player Development Days are a fantastic opportunity for any aspiring young players looking to learn from professional coaches and work on developing key elements of their play, such as game awareness and defensive contact.
“The feedback we’ve received from our previous Player Development Days has been fantastic and we look forward to working with more players on this programme in February.”
