Interprovincial Squads Continue Preparations

The Munster U20, U19, U18 Clubs and U18 Schools representative sides are currently attending the Bank of Ireland Munster Rugby Talent Camp as they prepare for the upcoming interprovincial series.

Munster’s U18 Club and Munster School squads are taking part in a five week intense residential training programme from Tuesday to Thursday at Rockwell College. Both squads are undergoing a heavy schedule of on pitch sessions, team bonding and strength and conditioning as well as educational modules focusing on health and nutrition and the players' general well being.

In their five day week schedule the squads also attend gym sessions on Monday and Friday at their home training bases.

This year, the Munster U20 and Munster U19 squads are following their Talent Camp programme in line with the Munster Academy at two centres in the Mardyke, Cork and Castletroy College, Limerick.

Programmes include on-pitch activities, strength and conditioning sessions and player welfare tutorials focusing on diet and nutritional needs.

Throughout the camp it is envisaged that players will be identified for future development programmes as part of Munster Rugby's long term player development and overall objective in building for the future.
