Sportplan rugby has played a large role in my team's love for the game!
Fitness training ideas
what drills are there to use a ladder and balls in warming up ?
How do you afitness test on your players to see how fit the are.
I have just started helping our head coach with under12's team. He wants to retire and has put me forward to be head coach next season. I am a little worried on how i should aproach training with the boys, going to a full 15 a side team on a full pitch. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I was offered free access to agility and fitness library. but it says locked, upgrade.
how do u play a smaller pack against bigger opposition? especially at scrum time. Thanks
Hi, I have a large pack, some new to rugby, and they are really passionate and impactful, but some are really struggling with helping get them on top of their fitness and aerobic exercise. One prop in particular is only 11 yrs old, but deperate to convert osme weight to focus on fitness. Any tips or exercise routines that I can use to get a heavy forward pack to work on their fitness training outside of the once a week rugby training session we have as a team?
