SUPPORTING NORTHLANDERS INTO HIGH PERFORMANCE RUGBY

Northland Rugby has a goal to develop homegrown players who progress their skills and develop their player peformance in our region. We want to help Northlanders strive for NPC, FPC, Super Rugby and beyond. One of our ways to achieve this is being transparent about what is expected of high performance players and lay out the steps required to reach this level. Below you will see information on our player pathways process, athlete performance requirements and more. 

CHARACTERISTICS OF SUCCESS

High performance athletes need to have the right attitude and skills in place to move up the pathway. This includes aspects such as work ethic, low error rate and committment. There are also some physical performance standards that are required. To enable players to start on the journey towards high performance, we have detailed these standards and criteria below.
