Edinburgh Rugby will embark on a week-long training camp in London this weekend to prepare for the 2025/26 season.

The squad will gather at The Lensbury in Teddington, where they’ll train and build team spirit ahead of the season.

The coaching staff sees this as a crucial opportunity to bring all players together, especially with Scotland internationals rejoining the squad after a well-earned break following the summer tour.

Head Coach Sean Everitt emphasised the importance of the camp, stating, “Getting the full squad together in one environment is crucial for us, both from a performance and off-field team building perspective.”

He added that the camp is a chance to focus intensively without everyday distractions, “Being together at The Lensbury will strengthen our bonds and help us build a strong team culture as we head into a new season.”

Everitt also welcomed back the Scotland internationals, noting that their quality and experience will significantly boost the squad, adding authenticity to the excitement building around the upcoming campaign.

Following the camp, Edinburgh will test their preparation in pre-season fixtures: first against Ulster [A], and then a double-header at Hive Stadium versus Doncaster Knights and Ealing Trailfinders.
