Course reviews
Rob Agnew EnglandThe tracking part is a fantastic skill that is definitely overlooked and under coached. Great vid – thanks!
Hamish Webb EnglandOne of the best vids on the site. This is hardly coached to lower age players and is vital to help them be more confident in the tackle. Please don’t use shields, hands on hips far better.
Emilio Navarro Great Britain & Northern IrelandWebsite to buy that please??? Brilliant idea, I have tried other things before but this is so visual!
Chris Connolly USAGreat explanations and examples, USA
Epeli Davetawalu Arabian GulfVery important in defense. Amazing to know the important that defense is half of the game. Great coaching insights – explain the problem and give your solutions. Thanks Nathan – one of the best in his rugby days.
Lara Jones Great Britain & Northern IrelandLove this really highlights my areas to improve
