Blues Rugby Camp Returns This JulyTop coaching and fun at Blues HQ.

If you've got a keen young rugby player in the family, this July school holidays might just offer the ultimate training experience.


The Blues July School Holidays Rugby Programme is back from Monday 7 July to Friday 11 July, offering a full week of world-class coaching for boys and girls aged 12 to 16.





It's all happening at Blues HQ in Epson, with daily sessions from 9:00 to 3:30.


This isn’t a casual kick-around — it’s a serious development opportunity for young players who are passionate about rugby but not yet in elite rep squads.


The programme is run in partnership with NZIRA and taps into a top-tier lineup of former players and international-level coaches.


Across five action-packed days, participants will sharpen their catch, pass, defence, and game awareness, while gaining fitness and mental strength — all in a supportive, professional environment.


The $500 registration fee covers:


  • Five full days of rugby and strength & conditioning
  • A Blues training top and boot bag
  • 20% discount on Blues merchandise
  • A tour of Blues HQ, recovery drinks, and a special visit from Blues players


Spaces are limited to just 50 spots, so Coast families with rugby-mad teens might want to jump on this fast.





For Coasties, this is a chance to get a taste of professional-level rugby.


It’s a rare opportunity to train where the Blues train and learn from those who’ve played at the very top.


Whether your teen is chasing rugby dreams or simply wants to improve their game, this programme offers something genuinely special.


Bookings can be made now through Flicket — just bring boots, lunch, and plenty of energy!
