Nottingham Rugby Club, UK
Championship Rugby Club, Nottingham Rugby Club, has revolutionised its on-site gym into a high performance training centre.
In competitive recruiting environments, facilities and equipment make a difference. Providing Nottingham Rugby with the tools and facilities they need for rigorous, smart, performance-based training is key in preparing the team for optimal performance.
Unrivalled levels of strength, speed, power, and agility are vital for Rugby – the new facility accommodates for this and more. The performance centre is equipped with XF80 Half Racks complete with sport training plates, barbells and multiple strength training tools such as Seal Row, Oppen Deadlift Bar and more.
Cultivating a space efficient, team training environment within the floor-space available was key. The compact footprint makes for efficient squad training sessions where the team are working simultaneously – whilst supporting a wide range of training methods and an improved player/coach training experience.
Jack Westley continues, “When talking about high-performance training centres, you immediately think of Eleiko. Eleiko is a world class brand, used at the highest level. We wanted our players and staff to have access to best in class facilities, and we strongly believe that we have that in Eleiko.
The buy-in to our physical performance programme has gone through the roof. The upgraded facility has sparked an unrivalled motivation in our players to get stronger and fitter.
On behalf of Nottingham rugby and the coaching staff, we can’t thank Eleiko enough for their support in this partnership. They have provided us with a world class facility to allow us to take our physical potential to the next level. Having access to such equipment really drives the intent for the players and makes our lives so much easier when it comes to player buy-in.”
With a clear focus on leading players through a developmental pathway, Nottingham Rugby continues to inspire and strengthen young Rugby talent. Here’s how the players themselves are finding the new facility:
Scott Hall: 2022 player of the year says, "Eleiko has transformed our gym facility into a fantastic fitness hub for us at Nottingham rugby. The equipment is top quality & contributes to us performing on the pitch on both training & match days. The team at Nottingham cant thank Eleiko enough!"

Michael Stronge, Scrum half nominated for Championship team of the season 21/22 says, “The gym upgrade has allowed use new exercises in our sessions to target more specific areas of our athletic development to help us be the best we can come game day”
Raising the Bar for high performance training, we are proud to partner with Nottingham Rugby to strengthen and inspire the future of their players and the club. We wish the club the best of luck for the 2023 season!
