An ambitious Dutch club, part of a select group with more than 10 national titles, is looking to reclaim its place at the top of the Ereklasse.
The club has a strong, established squad and a clear plan. A few targeted additions in key positions are all that stands between them and the title race.
The club is specifically recruiting two props (loosehead and tighthead) and a scrumhalf (9). They will also consider any quality player who wants to be part of the project.
What the club offers:
– Return flight to the Netherlands, covered by the club
– Accommodation provided
– Assistance securing local employment
– Full access to club gym facilities
– Paid coaching role with our U14, U16 and U18 squads (optional, twice weekly)
– Club social activities covered by the club
Club and environment
We are based in a vibrant student city in the central Netherlands, within easy reach of both Amsterdam and Rotterdam. The club combines a competitive senior program with a strong social culture and a close knit, family feel. Many overseas players have used this setup to settle quickly and enjoy their time in Europe.
Player expectations
– Commitment to a competitive training and match environment
– Setting a positive example on and off the pitch and contributing to the culture of the club
– A willingness to help with youth coaching (U14, U16 and U18, twice per week) is appreciated but not required, and is paid separately
This opportunity is well suited to ambitious players looking to continue playing high level rugby while experiencing life in Europe.
