Pre-season is a crucial time in the Oaklands Wolves ACE Rugby programme, helping players prepare both physically and mentally for the season ahead.

Players are encouraged to attend as many sessions as possible. We understand that some absences may be unavoidable (e.g. holidays, work or travel), but all players must complete the Pre-Season Availability Form via the link provided in their information pack.

For many, this will be their first experience of a high-performance pre-season. Training intensity and volume will be high, with support provided around:

• Nutrition and fuelling for performance
• Recovery and injury prevention
• Managing training loads effectively
