Brumbies Rugby Foundation

Brumbies Rugby Foundation

Our pathway programs include the Brumbies Junior and Senior Academy’s capturing talent from U15 through to U19+. These crucial platforms support player development for match programs comprising the Brumbies U19’s and Junior Gold Cup (Brumbies U16’s and U15’s).


These specific programs nurture approximately 100 aspiring athletes selected for inclusion from across the region.


We have had some great recent success in developing our next generation including at least half a dozen Brumbies players making their senior debuts each season.


Our holistic elite youth development programs focus on developing the whole person across physical, tactical, technical, mental, leadership and nutritional facets. The programs focus on the players' knowledge, development and improvement in physical conditioning, strength, speed, power, flexibility and physical preparation. There is also an emphasis on improving their technical skills around position, unit and team techniques for individual player development. We aim to improve their rugby knowledge across position, unit, team and style of play while enhancing their capacity for decision making and game management.


Education is also aimed at improving the whole person not just the rugby player. It highlights other aspects of life and how they work together for better performance on and off the field.


A critical part of the program is ensuring access to ‘specialist services’. This ranges from current elite coaches to ex professional players in addition to supplementary support from consultants across a myriad of expert services, including the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS).


We are immensely proud of our Academy and pathway program, boasting that of the 2022 men’s team, 7 players are proudly home grown Canberrans whilst 21 have come into the senior team via our pathway programs and 19 of our 35-member senior squad have represented the Wallabies. Of the 2022 Women’s side, 20 are home grown, having come through our pathway program whilst 7 have represented the Wallaroos. 

 

We continue to “grow our own” and without your support and philanthropic efforts, this would not be as successful as it is, therefore please accept our deepest thanks for your support.
