Off Season Programming – Keltics Academy
Announcing the 2025 Keltics Academy Fundamentals Program!
We are excited to launch the 2025 Keltics Academy Fundamentals, a premier introduction to high-performance rugby for high school-aged rugby athletes. This 6-week off-season program is designed to develop foundational skills, rugby knowledge, and the mindset required to excel in the sport.
Registration Details:
Each training group will have different schedules and different costs associated. There is no selection into training groups – sign up for what works best for you and your family. Details on each training group are below.
- Registration Opens: October 6th
- Registration Closes October 19th
- Program begins week of Nov 3rd
- Program ends week of Dec 15th
- Registration is done through Sportlomo – you must have RUGBY CANADA INSURANCE for the 2025 season to register (if you played club or provincial this summer you should be ok!)
Who is this program for?
High school aged athletes who have some experience in rugby. Keltics Academy is not a “learn to play” program but rather a fundamental skill development program.
We combine introduction to strength & conditioning with weekly skill sessions that will focus on non-position specific skills (Run/Catch/Pass, Ball Out of Contact, Ball in Contact, Tackle & Tracking & Breakdown Skills) and bi-weekly game structures to provide an environment to test skills in live game play.

South Coast Senior League
Round 5 match summary
Figtree Kangaroos 10. 10. 70 defeated Helensburgh Tigers 10. 9. 69
A thrilling encounter saw the Roos come from behind to secure a crucial 1 point victory. Down by 12 points at halftime, captain Jake Morrison sparked the comeback with a brilliant individual goal in the late in the 3rd quarter. Young gun winger Tommy Chen sealed the win with a spectacular off-the-ground finish in the dying minutes. The defensive effort from Mike Stevens and Danny Walsh was outstanding, making crucial tackles when it mattered most.
Best Players: J. Morrison (c), T. Chen, M. Stevens, D. Walsh, S. Parker
