- What does it take to become a professional rugby player in England? After beating Sale Sharks, the academy team face a match review and a list of work-ons as they prepare for Leeds.
Leicester Tigers are steeped in the history of Rugby. Winning three Premiership titles and back to back European titles in the early 2000s, the club is a giant of the game. Over the last two decades they have produced some of the best rugby players on the planet and their identity is the embodiment of the English rugby ethos: hard-nosed, fast-paced and at times ruthlessly brutal.
The club have a strong tradition of producing home-grown players. Tigers legends Martin Johnson and Graham Rowntree were developed from a strong youth structure and Tigers recognised very early that an Academy system was needed to develop players capable of playing professional rugby. In 1998 the Tigers Academy was established with players such as Harry Ellis, Sam Vesty and Louis Deacon among the first to successfully come through the system. In 2002, Tigers were rewarded for their pioneering work with RFU Academy status.
The programme has produced more than 100 age-grade internationals as well as producing British & Irish Lions caps Tom Croft, Dan Cole, Harry Ellis, Ollie Smith, Manu Tuilagi, and Ben and Tom Youngs. RugbyPass goes behind the scenes of the programme to see what it takes to become a Leicester Tiger; going on a journey with Academy hopefuls over the course of their championship. We see the laughs, we see the pain and we see what it takes to make it at the highest level. RugbyPass presents: ‘The Academy’.

Make moreeeee
20:20 what's that song
Nice guy
The real question is is how many academy players have become professionals from tigers 😂😂😂😂
Lots. What kind of dumbass question is that?
Probably only 1 or 2 from this group would get a senior contract and then get released
happyspanners name me the players then
In the past? Loads. In the present? Not many at all
@@davisgames1917 you want me to write out every professional player who has come through the Leicester academy? Have you fucking heard of Google, you troglodyte?
Song ? 20:23
It takes RAD140.
How would you know, you're not a doctor
@@jsilver7186 I'm not a doctor, I know. I'm coach Greg. I know what it takes, don't be fooled.
@@bjooste5676 with your laser eyes?
@@jsilver7186 My eyes are the gold standard in bodyfat testing.
Why do they have letters on there kit instead of the number?? Also up the Munster 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Up the Leinster more like, the letters are their initials
EpicEditzx zx the letters are in place of the numbers they equal the position number (A-1, B-2). It is how the shirts used to be before numbers were made compulsory
Ashley Eaton thx
LSG - Long Shot Gaming Calm down u weapon
Imagine wanting to play for England 😂😂👌🏽
Drugs. Unfortunately not the fun kind.
I truly believe alot of these players should not be playing at academy level
That stuff about the socks is really petty. I thought professional sport had moved on .
English school boys rugby sucks.
lemme guess. your south african?
@@David-li2qj No, South Africans say that Kiwi schoolboy rugby sucks, because we hand their arse to them every year. We are not that familiar with the English boys.
