Package holiday specialist, Jet2holidays, along with The Algarve Tourist Board have reveled in becoming the major sponsors of Leeds Rugby Foundation’s hugely popular rugby camps.
Jet2holidays were joined by Leeds Rhinos stars Ryan Bailey, Ryan Hall, Ben Jones-Bishop and Liam Sutcliffe with an all action visit to Oulton Raiders ARLFC during the half term break!
The camp was also in name of Ryan Bailey who is celebrating his testimonial year at the Leeds Rhinos following 10 years of long and loyal service.
This fun-packed 2 day course saw youngsters get the unique opportunity to spend a week with Leeds Rhinos professional coaches as well as receive a Leeds Rhinos camp T-shirt and water bottle.
The Rhinos stars joined the 60 children in the activities throughout the two day camp and signed autographs which the children will cherish for years to come.
The fun does not stop there however as the children now have the unique opportunity to participate in a match day pitch parade at the Leeds Rhinos v Huddersfield Giants match on Thursday 12th June – so look out for them and make sure you give them a wave!
Ryan Bailey, who in the days prior to his camp conducted a ‘Twitter Takeover’ on the Leeds Rugby Foundation’s Twitter, @RugbyLeeds commented on the success of his camp: “It was great to see so many kids down here at my camp to celebrate my testimonial year at the Rhinos.
“We are grateful for anyone’s support, but the fact a huge company as Jet2holidays have backed the Leeds Rhinos camps is testament to the work of the Leeds Rugby Foundation.”
Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays commented: “We’re thrilled to be supporting the Leeds Rugby Foundation’s rugby, activity and dance camps throughout Yorkshire, encouraging thousands of children to get sporty this summer.”
Leeds Rugby Foundation and Jet2holidays now look ahead to the host of summer camps which will take place throughout Yorkshire at venues such as; Doncaster Toll Bar, Catterick Crusaders, York Acorn and Guiseley.
