Steve Pilgrim

My understanding of high-level preparation began during my time at Reigate Grammar School. Early on, I recognised that elite training is the definitive foundation for long-term athletic success.

Throughout my career, I was fortunate to be guided by exceptional coaches across various disciplines. While their methodologies differed, their core philosophy was identical: the dedication exhibited in the gym, on the practice field, and alongside teammates directly dictates success on match day. The timeless adage, "Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance," is a non-negotiable standard that applies equally to modern sports and the corporate arena.

I bring this exact, uncompromising approach to my current training models—the same methodology that fueled my career across the highest echelons of rugby. My competitive background includes:

• International & Representative: England U21 (Captain), England B, England Schoolboys, England Students, and the prestigious Barbarians.

• Club & Regional: Wasps, Harlequins, London and the South East Division, and Old Reigatians.

• Global Sevens: Competed in over 150 international Sevens tournaments worldwide.

Complementing my playing career, I developed my coaching expertise on a global scale, serving as a Personal Trainer for the world-renowned Les Mills brand in both New Zealand and the UK.

Today, I am proud to return to my roots in Reigate to cultivate the next generation of athletic talent. Through tailored programs at Peak Performance and specialised Kicking Coaching, I provide aspiring athletes and high performers with the elite strategic opportunities, technical discipline, and mentorship that defined my own journey.
