The Brothers World of Entertainment Northern Pride Academy Program is proud to announce its Under 12s to Under 17s High Performance squads for 2015-16.
Following an intensive selection process, the Pride High Performance squads, which will be in place from July this year to April 2016, have been named.
Northern Pride High Performance Manager Benjamin Fielding said these squads were on top of the open trials at the end of the year for the club’s 2016 Under 16 Cyril Connell and Under 18 Mal Meninga Cup squads.
“The selection process for the squads is a lengthy one, taking into account the performance of players across their local junior league and/or schoolboy rugby league seasons,” said Mr Fielding.
“We’ve been watching local league and representative matches for the past 12 months, making sure that we have scouted the talent fully in many different conditions.
“We’ll also be continuing to scout local league matches to finalise the Under 20 Northern Pride squad to play in pre-season trials, due to the success of this concept in 2014.
“The Academy structure and professionalism is set up so well, we leave no stone unturned to achieve results not only on the field, but also off the field to develop these guys into good young men and leaders in their communities.
“We think we’ve got some superb youngsters in all age groups, and congratulations to everyone selected.”
Mr Fielding said letters to selected players, containing more information on their involvement in the squads, were sent out last week.
“If any players selected in the squads have not received correspondence by the end of this week, they should touch base with the Club as soon as possible,” he said.
All U15 Squad Members are to meet their coaches David Scott and Col Wilkie at Barlow Park on Saturday, July 4 at 3.45pm.
These are all non-playing squads and are involved in the following:
Under 12s to Under 17s
Eight high performance training nights during this period:
- Five of these nights are dedicated to Rugby League core skills development and testing, and attacking and defensive game sense development
- Three of these nights are dedicated to fitness testing, strength and conditioning workshops, and high performance/welfare topic lectures.
The first of these training nights for the new Under 12 to Under 17 high performance squads is Monday, 13 July from 4.45-7pm at West Barlow Park.
