Candidates for a London Wasps Academy Apprenticeship are identified via a combination of nominations, scouting and applications. The selection process for the Academy Apprenticeship has 3 stages:

Rugby

Acceptance that the candidate has displayed elite levels of performance or shown the potential to reach elite levels. This will be established through scouting or application, references and trials.

Academic

Once a candidate has been selected on rugby performance grounds, an interview with the school will ensure the provision of appropriate academic courses.

Medical

Once a candidate has been accepted on rugby performance and an academic path has been agreed, a medical is required to ensure fitness to engage in the physical rigours of the apprenticeship.
