101 Youth Rugby Drills
Designed specifically for younger players, 101 Youth Rugby Drills is the practice bible for youth rugby coaches. It contains a range of progressive practice drills to help young players develop.
Fun, educational and challenging, all drills are illustrated and cover the essential technical skills required to introduce rugby, including:
- warming up and cooling down
- handling the ball
- running with the ball
- running off the ball
- attacking and defensive patterns
As well as easy-to-use instructions, each drill contains information on the equipment needed, the space required, how to construct a safe and effective training session and how to organise the players.
