Huge News! CRCP will be FREE* to all high school participants
Ray Peterson, President of American Rugby Management Group announced that the nationwide Collegiate Recruitment and Combine Programs will be FREE to all participants who Pre-Register at rugbyrecruiting.com. Participants who walk up and register on site will be charged a $15 administrative fee.
“This dynamic and incredibly valuable Program is a tool for high school athletes to expand their college selection opportunities. In consideration of the intent to support our young high school boys and girls and to provide college coaches a more robust database for evaluations, ARMG has waived the fees for the 2011-12 Series. The original fee was $25 per athlete, now waived. The walk up fee will be $15, so the athletes should pre register online. College representatives will be on site to present their schools and answer questions from the athletes and their parents. Each college attending the CRCP will also be linked for access by all CRCP participants throughout the year. This fee waiver is primarily made possible by the support of our key sponsors, adidas, Royall Lyme and World Rugby Shop and ARMG strongly encourages the rugby constituency to support these sponsors throughout the year.”
CRCP Adds Value to Coach Subscribers
The CRCP has enhanced the value of the CRCP Coach Subscription segment. The Coach Subscription fee of $500 annually initially provided Profile information on all high school athletes participating in the original 12 CRCPs scheduled through the June 2 event in Philadelphia. Ray Peterson, President of American Rugby Management Group, announced today that the number of CRCPs that would be included for the coaches would extend through the entire calendar year of 2012. This increases the database, increases the opportunity for coaches to contact seniors through the Fall of 2012. It also increases the number of CRCPs to “approximately 24, as opposed to the original 12”
The Combine consists of 9 measured/timed drills designed to allow coaches to evaluate any athlete’s core skill set. Coaches understand that sophomores are not juniors or seniors. High school athletes continue to grow, continue to get stronger and faster. They make their own assessments of how much coaching will enhance any prospective applicant. And by reading your specific “Profile”, which every high school participant fills out, coaches will have the opportunity to contact you directly.
The drills consist of:
1- Agility Course;
2- 10 yard sprint from prone position;
3- 20 yard sprint with ball and one cut;
4- 40 yard sprint with ball;
5- 10 Yard Weight Carry (Resistance);
6- Vertical jump;
7- 8 Catch drill;
8- Target accuracy throws – 3 left hand & 3 right hand;
9- Timed obstacle course
If you are currently playing high school rugby, on any level, participating in the Recruitment/Combine events nearest you will be one of the most valuable things you can do for yourself as you begin the college application process. We encourage you to do so.

U13 – 6-7pm (David, I will get the mats from the gym so where we can work on lineouts if you want.)
U15 – 7-8pm

We will just have to keep the noise down a little as there are meetings going on throughout the building. so try to keep the kids from yelling.
I will be parking on the athletic side of the building (where the construction is going on) but you can enter from anywhere. Cafe is in the middle-back of the school. Find a main hall and walk towards the interior of the school and you cant miss it.
