Samoan rugby international Tani Fuga will be coaching youngsters at Harpenden Rugby Club this summer.
Hooker Fuga played in the 2007 Rugby World Cup and has been at Premiership side Harlequins for the past ten years.
The Samoan said: "Rugby is my passion and it’s fantastic to have the opportunity to pass that on to the players of the future. I can’t wait to tackle this particular fixture."
The summer camp, which will be organised by Socious Sports, will be open to both sexes and for six to 16-year-olds of all abilities. It will run from 9.30am until 3.15pm between August 2 and August 6.
James Phillips, managing director of Socious Sports, said: "Tani is a huge figure in world rugby. It’s not every day you get the opportunity to be coached by an international rugby star. This is a fantastic opportunity for local children who love playing rugby."
There will be a number of other players and coaches from New Zealand, Australia, South Africa and the Pacific Islands taking sessions during the week.
The camp costs £125 for the week. For details visit www.socioussports.com or call 07975 981721.
