A TRIO of young Poverty Bay rugby players will be part of a Hurricanes age-group training camp next month.
Loosehead prop Jordan McFarlane, the Gisborne Boys’ High School first 15 captain, will join fellow prop Sione Mafileo, flanker Khian Westrupp and 45 other players in the under-17 and u18
camp at Napier.
They will spend a week receiving specialist coaching and tuition on areas such as mental skills development, tactics, physical preparation, nutrition and leadership.
