BC Rugby is delighted to announce the athletes who will take part in the 2026 Build a Bear U15 Boys and Girls Training Camps at Shawnigan Lake School on July 26-30.
Following the success of last year’s Build a Bear Development Camps, athletes have again be invited through regional nominations. This Camp has proven to be an excellent environment for developing positional understanding and core skillsets, with specialty Coaches delivering position-specific expertise.
The Camps will see athletes work with several high-profile Coaches to develop positional and individual skillsets, as well as game understanding for XVs Rugby. Training will introduce functional movements required for skill execution, set-piece, catch-pass, and kicking progressions to potential future BC Bears pathway athletes.
Rosters are as follows:
