Over the summer months of July and August Ulster Rugby will be holding Player Development sessions for the best Under 16 Schools players and the best Under 16 Club players.

The sessions are one day or evening per week and prepare young players for future involvement in Ulster Age Grade Representative Teams at Under 18 level and beyond.

The development sessions are lead by Ulster Rugby Staff including Ulster Academy Coaches and we are seeking expressions of interest from Qualified (IRFU Stage 2 and above with two or more years coaching experience) School and Club coaches willing to assist and support the staff coaches.

This is a great learning environment for players and coaches alike and we feel that coaches will benefit from the interaction with the young players, the staff coaches and coaching content being delivered.

We are presently seeking expressions of interest from energetic coaches who would like to be involved with some of the following structures;

Ulster Under 16 Club Youth Squad (1999)
Each Monday from 18.00 – 19.30 at Rainey Endowed School, Magherafelt
Commencing Monday 7th July 2014 and continuing through July & August

Ulster Under 16 Schools Squad
Each Thursday from 10.00 – 14.00 at Rainey Endowed School, Magherafelt
Commencing Thursday 3rd July 2014 and continuing through July & August

Further opportunities are available to work with older/more-advanced squads of players preparing for Interprovincial competition and we would welcome the support of ambitious coaches seeking to develop themselves.

If you would like to volunteer for some of these opportunities or simply want to know more about the role and commitment required, please email or call one of the following on or before Thursday 10th June.
