As a key element to RugbyPA's player development and high performance pathway, RugbyPA launch their HS boys satellite rugby Academies sponsored by Canterbury this Spring. The three satellite Academies will provide an inclusive, athlete centred approach to player development. With a focus on core skill development, the RugbyPA Academies will endeavor to provide players top level coaching and high performance opportunities. 

RugbyPA would like to thank Canterbury for sponsoring the new initiative across the entire State. Players from these Academies will be eligible to compete for the East, Central and West Select Sides in the new 2016 RugbyPA Regional Super Series. The RugbyPA HS Boys Regional Super Series will provide a platform for players to earn selection for the RugbyPA All State HS Varsity Boys and Junior Varsity Boys Squads at this years USA Rugby Regional Cup Tournament. The RCT is the next step to earn selection as a High School All American.
