Rugby Borough Women FC are hosting an open training session for their Advanced Training Centre (ATC), providing young girls with a unique opportunity to train within a professional football environment. The programme is run by current Rugby Borough Women first-team players, which is something the club prides itself on. Participants will benefit from direct exposure to senior players who are actively competing in the FA Women’s National League, offering insight into the standards and demands of the first-team environment.

The next ATC open training session will take place on Monday 2nd February, hosted at the club’s home ground at Kilsby Lane.

Following this session, the programme will run every Monday during term time, with fixtures arranged during school half-term periods.

The programme is open to grassroots players as well as those representing their school teams, providing an additional pathway for development alongside existing football commitments.

As part of the programme, players will also have the opportunity to take part in matches against local elite teams, further supporting their competitive development.

Training sessions will follow the same coaching curriculum used by Rugby Borough Women FC’s first team, ensuring consistency across all levels of the club. Position-specific coaching will also be included, with specialist sessions delivered where appropriate-for example, goalkeeping sessions will be led by the club’s own goalkeeping coach.

The ATC programme is designed to offer players increased exposure, additional contact time, and structured  development within a professional setting, helping support their progression both technically and tactically.
