Awesome stuff on fundamentals Wes!

Australia

Love it. Great fundamentals for any level of play for men and women. Clearly explained and illustrated. Thank you!

USA

@3.28, loved Wesley’s ‘permission to fail’. This is perhaps the best explanation of the ‘tricep punch out’ passing revolution that I’ve seen.

New Zealand

Very good teaching really gives newer coaches the idea of what we should be doing at training, teaching the game!

USA

Great Drill. Also teaches draw and pass, decision making, reaction time, running at pace and communication. Wesley’s questioning of the players is great and makes the girls accountable.

Australia

excelente!! Muchisimas Gracias

Argentina

I use this drill regularly, you can develop this to do all your passing skills, using large numbers.

England

Really good breakdown of basic skills. As a US university coach who is constantly getting players new to the game I would like to have more videos of Wesley Clarke on the site.

USA

Great session. Clear and precise coaching points and good progression through the session. Can’t wait to try it on my u10 team at the weekend!

Great Britain & Northern Ireland

As someone who is just starting to coach women’s rugby 7’s I found these videos very helpful. Any help with coaching women in particular in the 7’s game would be great.

Australia

Awesome stuff, really awesome. Learnt a lot from it and looking forward to implementing them in my coaching.

Australia

Outstanding instruction and very relevant to new players who are learning at any age.

USA

Great series of videos, nice to see the players being challenged via questioning. More videos from this coach would be very helpful.

Canada

Thank you coach. Great info.

USA

Hi! Very good series. Just a quick comment about the tackler going back on his/her legs, new law forces him/her to enter through the gate like any other defensive player.

USA

Nice. Real simple.

New Zealand

LO QUE PUEDO VER ESTA BUENO NO PUEDO TRADUCIR AL CASTELLANO

Argentina

Interesting insights from a great coach. I’ ve got an enduring memory of Wes composure on the sideline during womens national finals. Professional.

New Zealand

Spot on. Thank you very much for these!

Argentina

If you have two coaches. One does attack one does defence. Great for 7’s

England

Nice work Wesley

New Zealand

Excellent progressive skills. I love the way it is broken down and presented

Superb articulation of how, why and the impact of real basics. Can be used well in all levels mens and womens.

New Zealand

Muy buen complemento de la serie catch and pass de Wayne Smith. Un enfoque más completo de posicioes corporales y uso de los musculos del brazo, etc.!
