ULSTER RUGBY & SUBWAY ANNOUNCE
SUMMER CAMP PROGRAMME
Ulster Rugby, who have partnered with Subway as the title sponsor of all Ulster Rugby
camps, have announced details of the 2017 Summer Camp programme.
The summer camps will feature 24 camps at 22
venues throughout the Province from 3rd July until
18th August, offering a fun-filled programme of rugby
training and games for boys and girls of all ages and
abilities.
Five-day Junior Camps will continue to run at 15
locations for boys and girls aged 6-11 while two three-
day Girls Camps at Malone RFC and Clogher Valley
RFC will cater for 10-16 year old females. Newforge
sports complex in Belfast will once again host a three-
day Special Needs Camp, while an additional Special
Needs Camp will also be held at Portadown RFC.
Following on from the successful introduction of the
School of Excellence Camps last summer, 5 similar
three-day camps will be run for more experienced
11-15 year old boys and girls. All camps will run from
9am-1pm each day.
The focus of all camps is about boys and girls enjoying
rugby in a fun and safe environment, with young
players benefitting from expert advice from IRFU
qualified rugby coaches while Ulster professional
players will also be on hand to give tips on the game,
talk about life as a professional and interact with the
participants.
Subway Ulster Rugby Camps offer great value with
£65 the cost for a place on the Junior Camp, £40 for
the Girls and Special Needs Camps, and £85 for the
School of Excellence Camps. Discounts are available
for additional family members attending the same
camp and for participants attending a second camp.
The price includes a t-shirt, boot bag, rugby ball, plus
promotional codes to claim a free ticket to an Ulster
game at Kingspan Stadium and a free stadium tour,
including a visit to The Nevin Spence Centre.
As part of the lead-in to the Womens Rugby World
Cup, the winners’ trophy will also be on show at a
number of the summer camps for participants to get
their photo taken and learn more about the big event,
which climaxes in Belfast this August.
Commenting on the announcement of the 2017
Subway Ulster Rugby Summer Camp programme,
Ulster Rugby’s Domestic Rugby Manager Chris
Webster said: "We are delighted to launch our annual
summer camps programme and also to welcome
Subway on board as our new sponsor. The summer
camps have gone from strength to strength and I
am delighted that we have been able to increase
the number of camps on offer this year, in particular
building on the success of our popular Schools of
Excellence and Special Needs camps.
“In the year in which the Women’s Rugby World Cup
comes to Ireland and Belfast plays host to the Final, it
is great to see that, with the increasing interest in the
female game, we are able to offer camps specifically
for the next generation of female players.”
Scot Heyes, Subway NI Marketing Chairman, added:
“Our partnership with Ulster Rugby represents a
perfect match for Subway and we are proud to be
supporting a forward-looking, ambitious organisation
which demonstrates and promotes passion, drive, and
a will to succeed at all levels of the game.
“With a combined team spirit, Subway looks forward
to cultivating the deep grass roots enthusiasm for
the sport and growing community participation and
engagement at all levels in an exciting, proactive way.”
Places on each camp are strictly limited, so
parents are encouraged to book early to avoid
disappointment.
