Welsh international rugby star Mike Phillips has teamed up with Just Play to launch his first rugby academy in the UAE.

Phillips, Wales’ most capped scrum-half with 99 appearances for the Welsh national side and the British and Irish Lions, will put young rugby stars aged from 3 to 11 years old through their paces with a host of fun activities at the new Dubai-based Mike Phillips Just Play Rugby Academy.

The Academy will hold regular training sessions at the English College Dubai in Jumeriah 3 and the Nord Anglia International School Dubai in Hessa Street.
