The successful Land Rover Premiership Rugby Cup returns this season with Worcester Warriors hosting their event on October 7 on the Cummins Farm pitches at, Sixways
There will be 64 teams from clubs across the Midlands and South West in two age groups in action on Sunday ahead of the Gallagher Premiership match between Worcester Warriors and Bristol Bears later in the day. The Land Rover Premiership Rugby Cup matches start at 10.15am.
The Under 11 and Under 12 grassroots rugby festival is part of a series of nationwide events which provide aspiring young players the opportunity to play in a competitive event and meet professional players from Worcester Warriors.
One team from each age group will receive a trip to the Gallagher Premiership Rugby Final at Twickenham Stadium on June 1 where they will meet a Land Rover rugby ambassador, join in a Land Rover Premiership Rugby Cup Parade at half-time and hear which of them has been named as Land Rover Junior Discovery of the Season.
The events are designed to provide young players with a chance to play competitive fixtures in a format that is appropriate for their ages and stage of development, all within the spirit of rugby’s core values of teamwork, respect, enjoyment, discipline and sportsmanship.
Since its inception in 2008, the Land Rover Premiership Rugby Cup has seen more than 82,000 children from all over the country take part – enough to fill Twickenham Stadium.
