Video reviews

Excellent discussion on how to apply the WR Contact Load guidelines in training without losing the need to have the players ready for the impacts required on game day. This highlights the need for coaches to plan their seasonal and weekly coaching plans in great detail; and the need to have good equipment to develop good contact techniques without the high impact. A most definite thought provoking discussion!

Contact load in training – what is it?

Why has World Rugby created guidelines around the level of players’ weekly contact load?

What does it mean for players at your level?

Player welfare is at the centre of these WR guidelines as we investigate in this new series.

We conduct a panel discussion covering: – What is Contact Load? – Outline the new Contact Load Guidelines. – Consider the implications for all levels of the game. – How to effectively manage it within your level of rugby?

The panel includes some top coaches from different levels of the game in New Zealand – Manawatu Turbos’ HC Pete Russell, IRANZ’s Dave Ellis, and Fielding High School’s HC Justin Lock.
