Royalty in the Ranks

Prince Harry studies for the L1CCRU

Rugby Union

It is a well-known fact that the man third in line to the throne is a keen sports fan, but did you know that Prince Harry now holds one of our qualifications?

Not only did he recently successfully complete the Level 1 Certificate in Coaching Rugby Union (L1CCRU) – one of our very own newly accredited qualifications, developed in partnership with the RFU and WRU – but so did his two royal protection officers, who were also present at the one-week course.

The Prince is now working as an RFU Assistant Development Officer in Gloucestershire during his gap year, prior to starting life in the army at Sandhurst barracks. So look out for an 'HRH' on your L2CCRU booking forms!
