LIFE High School Rugby Camp Sold Out
Marietta GA - High school students from all over the nation are clamoring to attend Life University s rugby camp July 13-16 on the Marietta campus. The number of participants is already maxed out with 60 high school students from 10 different states.
The camp is designed for incoming high school freshmen through graduating seniors to learn basic skills, position-specific techniques, diet and nutrition, strength and conditioning, and goal setting. On the final day, the camp will conclude with a competitive match between the participants.
Having 60 of the leading high school athletes from around the country visiting our campus for a week of training and development is a winning combination for all involved, said Director of Life Rugby Dan Payne.
The camps coaching staff includes Payne, Scott Lawrence, Matt Sherman and current Life Rugby players. The special guest lecturers are Todd Clever, captain of the U.S. Rugby National Team and Seth Payne, a former NFL player.
There are 23 rugby teams in the Georgia High School Rugby Association, and there will be eight players from Marietta in attendance.
The younger players begin playing, the more skilled and developed they'll be as they reach their undergraduate institutions, said Payne. We have seen a direct tie-in with the growth of the sport at the high school level and those who are choosing their undergraduate colleges with rugby in mind. We have 15 incoming freshmen this year as part of our recruiting class. It's safe to say that each of them started looking at Life University as an option because of our rugby program and the level at which they can train and compete.
This is the first rugby summer camp hosted by Life University at this level, which is expected to be an annual event for years to come.
