Looking for an opportunity to learn new skills and develop yourself with hands-on support from professional coaches? Gloucester Rugby lead rugby camps across Gloucestershire and West Oxfordshire, designed for boys and girls of all abilities aged U7s - U16s.

These camps provide a unique experience for young people and are an opportunity to learn skills that can benefit them on the rugby field that also develop them as a person. Our team of coaches will change the young people they work with to set goals, as well as equip them with skills to achieve them. A camp experience with Gloucester Rugby is a chance to develop skills that will support young people to express themselves, lead others and solve problems.

Our two-day camp experience is designed to help develop participant’s confidence, decision making, game understanding and spatial awareness. Skills taught will consist mainly of handling, support and evasion skills.
