The Leicester Tigers England Rugby Academy aims to produce players for both Tigers and England, including SMB alumni George Martin, Chester Owen, Joseph Woodward, Tim Hoyt, and Lewis Chessum!
The Leicester Tigers ACE (Academy College Education) programme is proudly delivered at our Brooksby Campus.
The ACE course hosts many Academy players but is open to aspiring players from all over the UK. The programme combines a range Level 3 BTEC or ‘A’ Level options with 12 hours a week of rugby development. ACE players benefit from a full programme of strength & conditioning, physiotherapy, video analysis and lifestyle support. The ACE team plays in a national competition against other Premiership Academy Colleges.
Players are welcome to apply if they have not previously been selected for representative rugby and do not have to live locally as there is accommodation on site. Players should have a huge desire to train and play at an elite level, have good athletic potential and be committed to a programme of strength & conditioning and nutrition.
ASSESSMENT DATES
During the session, there will be a number of activities on a rotation so that we can assess each players current ability and future potential. From this we can determine which rugby squad will best suit your rugby development!
