Slug Rugby Pre-Season Program — New Zealand 2026
Train. Connect. Grow.
🏉🌎🦥 This summer, UCSC Rugby student-athletes will travel to New Zealand for an immersive academy experience featuring elite coaching, homestays with local families, and leadership development opportunities designed to shape the next generation of Slugs.
Our players are working hard to earn this opportunity. Help us ensure that financial circumstances don't stand in the way of transformational experiences.
Help UCSC Rugby student-athletes develop as athletes, leaders, and global citizens through the New Zealand Academy.
The UCSC Rugby New Zealand Academy uses rugby as a vehicle for leadership development, cultural immersion, and global engagement. Students train with elite New Zealand coaches, live with local families, and return home with a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.
Train. Connect. Grow.
