2026 National Elite Youth Rugby Trials – Register Now

Over five weeks in Summer 2025, more than 100 young rugby prodigies took part in our national trials. Representing 11 counties, 24 clubs, and 56 schools, players travelled from as far as Bath, Wales, Brighton, and Canterbury to test themselves against the very best. From this pool, the first Academy team of 35 players is now being selected.

Be part of the next generation!

Registration is now open for the 2026 trials, which will take place over 8 sessions in July and August 2025 at the National Sports Centre, Bisham Abbey. All participants will also be invited to join Academy players at open days throughout the year to help prepare for the trials.
