Rugby Academy

2019 Summer Camps

It is our vision to bring Rugby to the Houston Youth Sporting community, increase participation numbers and challenge the old way of thinking about this wonderful game.

Our non-contact Summer Camps are focused around fun and engagement. We center our programming through game-based activities and learning.

• Kicking
• Evasive footwork
• Communication

Why We Do It

The SaberCats seek to train the next generation of rugby players through intensive player development and growth. To accomplish this, our academy focuses on high-performance expectations and community.

The intent of our High-Performance Academy is to create a clear development pathway from junior rugby to the professional world.

The pathway is divided by age group:

U20 (Mens)
U19 Varsity (High school)
U17 Junior Varsity (High school)
U15 (High School)
