High Performance Camp

SIGNATURE PROGRAMME
The High Performance Camp is our signature programme capped at 20 aspirational rugby players per year. Our HP Camp is an individualised programme that is designed to enable you to live the life of a professional rugby player and take your game to the next level.
We have had a really high success rate of players going on to play professional or semi-pro University level rugby overseas. If you are motivated to accelerate your development and get on the high performance pathway then this camp is for you!
The High Performance Camp runs from March to July which coincides with the local Bay of Plenty club competition. Players are placed with local club teams where they put their learnings into practice and compete with and against local NZ rugby players.
Our High Performance Camp is designed for male or female rugby players aged 18+ who aspire to achieve international or professional status in the game.

Hear what the parents and players have to say...
Inside Running Academy was definitely the best rugby experience my son and our rugby club ever had!

I have had 3 sons train with Inside Running Academy in 2019 and 2020. All the boys improved in all skills & fitness. Additionally forming international friendships from athletes from across the globe.
Outside of learning new rugby skills, they improve nutrition, goals & can provide realistic opportunities here in NZ & abroad!! Highly recommend for male and female rugby athletes wanting an advantage to their exisiting level of skills and fitness.

Our son loved his training at Inside Running Academy and was going to happily go there for a 3rd time this April, unfortunately due to Covid, it’s pushed to a later date! If your son wants to go to back to Inside Running Academy it says it all!
