It’s great to see the Coventry academy developing. I would just point out that the fixture on 13/9 against the Cambridge 1923’s kicks off at 12pm and not 2:30pm as shown on the Coventry website. It’s actually a curtain raiser to our 1st XV match against Ulster that kicks off at 3pm. It might be an idea if someone passes this information on to the relevant people at Coventry so that anyone travelling over to Cambridge doesn’t arrive after the academy game has already finished!

Great…more young players being pulled out of meaningful club fixtures throughout the rugby pyramid for futile exhibition games, that’ll be good for their development and the relationships Cov and others have with respective local clubs LOL

Good luck with the academy. Absolutely vital stuff. 

When the current controlled chaos at Sixways has settled down re-starting an academy programme is high on the do-list. We were told so at our recent supporters’ open evening.

Don't think you'd be damned if you supported the development of your academy lads during pre-season. Getting exposed to the senior players and what a proper game week or game day looks like is exponentially more important then some throw away curtain raiser
