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 am looking for a Day 0 type of session for American children who may have never held a rugby ball. If I move forward with a rugby exhibition/team creation in the neighborhood, I want to make sure I know how/what to teach Day 0. I'm hoping that interest is growing for touch and flag rugby due to the recent in Philadelphia between the USA Eagles and the Maori All Blacks. I was there. It was fantastic. Tickets sold out so fast, I think there will be more of these in the area. Thanks.

u12 boys team.. looking to do 90 min team building session in a hall.. large group of 30. kids and coaches.. any recommendations for activities and games that don't need buying equipment or investment.. that like promote cross friendships..bonding..Communications..fun
Hi all. I'm currently busy with u8 training for next years season. The problem im facing is that each player wants to run with the ball, which i cant blame them, but they dont want to offload before a tackle is made, and when they go to ground everyone wants to grab the ball. What can i do for them to offload and also form a ruck ones a tackle is made, While doing drills they do exacly what i ask of them but as soon as we do a practice match everything falls apart.
I need ideas for fun team building activities and any fun games to help towards team building. Has anyone got any ideas on what to do? Anything to spice up rugby training sessions in the dark, cold winter nights.
My U11's are a mixed bunch when it comes to tackling. Some very good, most OK, some ...hmmmm... enough said. Been through all the drills and when we break things down, go back to basics, everything appears OK, but it doesn't always transfer into the game. Any ideas on small group games that will allow me to combine technique with confidence?
