Dear Rugby Coach,
You know coaching is more than simply putting down a few cones and telling your players to run up and down the pitch passing the ball.
First of all, you need to be in the right frame of mind, have a plan and deliver your coaching in a way that engages and invigorates your players.
Your players then need to be able to respond in training and on match day, performing both to their full potential individually and as a team. |
|
But a team sport like rugby isn't just about getting better skills or practising moves to perfection. It's about being motivated and prepared mentally too.
These things start with you, the coach.
My new report, Motivating Your Team for Their Best Ever Season, can help.
Compiled from extensive research into the most effective techniques and strategies used in training and during the game, the report is a practical, no-nonsense guide to getting your players to perform to their true potential - whether that's to win the league, beat your local rivals or simply start to enjoy the game again. |

It contains valuable expert insight from top coaches around the world, as well as players and sports psychologists, including:

|

|
