In mid-August the Saracens Academy and Development Coaches were drafted in to support Mr Jamie Cullen, Head of Rugby and the PE Department in the running of a comprehensive pre-season rugby camp for the School U14-U18 teams.
The camp included an introduction to the new laws, skills development activities, age-grade contact skills and focus on structure in attack and defence. The boys were also put through some rigorous testing by our new full-time Strength and Conditioning Coach, Geoff Marshall, who will help players and coaches analyse their improved performance throughout the seasons and learn to manage injury effectively.
All in all it was a great start to the season and the beginning of what will be a great relationship with Saracens and we will host regional members of their Academy in the future.
