I invented Smart Sessions back in 2005 and they have proved to be
popular with rugby coaches and players of many abilities in clubs and
schools around the world.
They will save you time
Each Smart Session has the information needed to run a full coaching
session of between 45 minutes and 1 hour 20 minutes, including
recommendations for a warm-up, the details of the main session,
development and game situation.
Two versions, both the same price

Core Skills: Core Skills are sessions suitable for coaching the basics
of the game to school children and club youth players, players new to
the game, any players wanting to brush up their skills, and Sevens
players. They are not suitable for children under seven. All Core Skills
sessions fall into one of 11 player skills categories: passing, kicking,
tackling, scrummaging, catching, rucking, mauling, lineout, footwork,
support play, and decision-making. Download a sample
