HITZ Programme
Inspiring Communities Through Rugby
We would like to invite you to meet with our team to discuss the award-winning Hitz programme that we run at Sandy Park, the home of Devon’s Premiership rugby team, Exeter Chiefs.
The programme tackles some of the greatest challenges facing young people today – unemployment, crime and disillusionment.
Delivered nationally by Premiership Rugby and funded by partners Barclays, Comic Relief, Land Rover and Wooden Spoon, HITZ uses the core values of rugby: team work, respect, enjoyment, discipline and sportsmanship to increase young people’s resilience, self-reliance and confidence.
Prospect Training Services provide inspiring individualised training plans to educate those on the Exeter Chiefs Hitz Programme.
Our programmes are specifically designed to provide 16-19 year old NEETs (not in education, employment or training) with the skills they need to get back into education, vocational training, apprenticeships and employment with training.
HITZ has a 90% success rate and 70% progression rate showing the work we are doing is changing lives. Together through support from our fantastic partners, training provider and the amazing facilities at Sandy Park, the Exeter Chief’s Hitz Programme can offer a truly amazing experience.
The course offers the following qualifications:
• BTEC Level 1 in Sports and Active Leisure
• Functional Skills and GCSE Maths and English
• Level 1 Diploma in Work Skills
It is a unique 34-week programme that is roll on, roll off based at Sandy Park. We aim to have a 50% split of theory and practical work outside the classroom. Each learner will take part in weekly and monthly reviews to analyse their behaviour, attendance and academic performance so goals can be set and achieved.
