The academy connects into provincial structures, club rugby, the Rugby 10’s programme, and the Champions League Rugby Festival.
Invitational programme
THE 10’S PATHWAY.
An invitational Rugby 10’s programme with opportunity to progress to international invitational teams — a real, tangible ceiling for players coming through the academy.
Age-group & senior
GOLDEN LIONS & VALKE.
U16, U18, U20 and Senior GLRU & VRU selection. The academy prepares players to be visible; the unions run their own selections.
City-wide
MATCH EXPOSURE.
Players develop in the academy and play matches with their chosen club — the academy does not run as a match-playing entity.
THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUERUGBY FESTIVAL.
The season’s climax. Franchise teams across U13, U15, U16, U18 and Open compete in the Champions League Rugby Festival — a showcase of every location’s best players.
