Rugby Excellence Academy

(RIQA) we encompass correct movement and body alignment in our quest to develop future rugby stars and prepare them for the rigours of the sport. Being a contact sport, strength and conditioning are of great importance and it is imperative that this training is periodized in a rugby-specific format, enabling players to deliver peak performance in-season. Rugby IQ academy will take each player through a training program beginning with body alignment and core work and correct resistance training. From here, they progress to rugby-specific training and conditioning, incorporating correct power training techniques that are critical for optimal performance and confidence on the field. After numerous gym and cardiovascular sessions spread over 6 months, the RIQA graduate player will have the edge over his opponent who has most likely being training incorrectly in the gym, if at all.
