Ulster Rugby Summer Camps are also an opportunity for young people to make new friends in a fun and safe environment, as well as meeting their rugby heroes. Members of the Ulster Rugby squad will be visiting the camps each week and will talk to the children about rugby during a question and answer session, thus giving them the chance to hear about life as a professional rugby player. Players will also be available for pictures with the children and to sign autographs.

As well as Centra’s sponsorship, Ulster Rugby’s new official kit supplier, Kukri will be providing a branded gear pack for every child at this year’s Summer Camps.  These packs will include the following items:

              - Back Pack
              - T-Shirt
              - Baseball Cap
              - Water Bottle
              - Mouth Guard
              - Autographed Rugby Ball

Summer Camp organisers are keen to encourage parents wishing to register their child for a place at Summer Camps to do so as soon as possible to avoid disappointment, as places are filling up fast. With just over 3 weeks to go until the first camps at Belfast Harlequins and Banbridge, there are still places remaining, but prompt application is advised.

Application forms can be downloaded from the Ulster Rugby website, or obtained from Ulster Rugby offices. Alternatively, they can be picked up at Centra stores province wide. Application forms should be filled in and returned to Ravenhill, along with payment of £75 (or €110).

Through Ulster Rugby Summer Camps, the stars of tomorrow are developed today, at the following venues:
