Colts player, Harry Healey, made a debut for the 1st XV in the win against Burton RFC earlier this month. Today (15th April) Harry flies to Wellington in New Zealand for the 2023 Swindale cup.
The OPEP, overseas playing experience programme has been created as part of the Nuneaton RFC Academy offer, and is focussed on the 18-23yr age group. It is especially useful to the transitioning Colts who start their first adult season of rugby in the UK with a full New Zealand season of rugby under their belts.
Harry is the first player to enrol on the programme, and we will track his progress throughout the season.
