About the team

The TWRFC Academy caters for boys age U16 to U18, with the whole squad coming together for activities where it makes sense.

At Tunbridge Wells RFC Academy, our mission is to work with all players, regardless of their ability, to develop them to their highest potential. Through a holistic approach, we focus on building rugby skills, fostering well-being, and nurturing life skills. Our goal is to create competitive teams whilst ensuring players enjoy their rugby journey.

The aims of the Academy are to create the best experience and pathway we can for players transitioning from youth rugby into senior rugby. This is a significant investment by TWRFC, we are delighted to have the support from a truly impressive coaching team led by former premiership player and first-team coach Simon Whatling.
